Immigration: Removal & Deportation

Victory in Alien Smuggling Case

On January 2, 2009, a 67-year-old Jamaican native (“Jane”)* a Jamaican native, citizen of Canada, and lawful permanent resident of the United States attempted to cross the US/Canada border at the Detroit Ambassador Bridge with two undocumented Canadian nationals (“Paul” and “Sally”). The border patrol seized Jane, and after a lengthy interrogation, charged her with alien smuggling. Specifically, the government alleged that on August 13, 2010, Jane “knowingly encouraged, induced, assisted, abetted, or aided Paul and Sally enter or try to enter the United States in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act (“INA”) Sec. 212. [8 U.S.C. 1182](a)(6)(E). In June of 2011, the court commenced removal proceedings against Jane after she admitted to the first four claims that were filed against her.

While the odds of success on appeal are statistically low, we win cases on appeal. Our recent victories included:

In the Matter of I. M. and M. M., Minors
In the Matter of A. D. DAVIS
In re Alvarez Minors (Order for remand)

nationwide scam aimed at black churches. Read the Detroit FreePress Article.
