Greetings Jorge Rivera, immigration attorney.
This is very good news, because during Donald Tump's administration, Immigration Judges were required to take at least 700 cases a year. That put a lot of pressure on them, they cut the procedures, the time, they limited the opportunities that immigrants had.
Now, with this change, there will be more possibilities. There are many things that an immigration attorney can ask the judge, and the judge, not being under so much time pressure, can give another hearing, more time, close the case, terminate it, or dismiss it. The judge has more freedom to help immigrants with this recent change.
The key in all of this is that a lot of people are going to be affected, but for the better. Why? Because there are 1.5 million cases that are backlogged in Immigration Court.
Don't think that they forget about those people who enter the country, no, they put them in the process of deportationIf they don't, they get an appointment and they have to go to court in front of the judge. They have to put them in deportation proceedings unless it gets out of hand, because there are a lot of people arriving but most of them will still have to go to court.
So, now that judges are going to have more time and more flexibility, lawyers can ask for more. This is going to have a big impact for immigrants. What is the biggest problem in the immigration courts? Most of them go without a lawyer.
Imagine yourself in front of a judge, or in front of a prosecutor who is applying the law and asking for deportation. If you go alone, you are probably going to lose. However, if you go with a good lawyer, you have a good chance of winning.
