Immigration Board Ties Bond Hearings To Detention Venue

According to sources Law360, this decision was made in connection with the case of an immigrant who was being held in an immigration detention center. An immigration judge had previously ordered the immigrant's release on bond, but the Board of Immigration Appeals overturned this decision, citing that the bond hearing was not held in the jurisdiction where the immigrant was being detained.

What to Do
Immigrants who are being held in detention in the US should consult with an immigration attorney to understand how this decision may affect their situation.
