in 11 cities to make immigration court hearings
more “efficient.” But for far too many, “efficiency” has meant orders of deportation, without notice, to countries where their lives are in danger.
Take, for example, the case of
Luis, his pregnant wife and toddler son. They were prepared to appear in Boston immigration court on their assigned date, only to discover later through an immigration lawyer that the administration had fast-tracked their case, moving it to the Dedicated Docket and assigning them an earlier date. By then it was too late — a judge had already ordered Luis’s family removed when they did not appear at the new hearing. Luis and his family, like countless other asylum seekers on the docket,
never received notice of the change.
So Biden's deportations went through a judge first dummy.
