Book excerpt: The Practice Manual is a comprehensive guide that sets forth uniform procedures, recommendations, and requirements for practice before the Immigration Courts. The requirements set forth in this manual are binding on the parties who appear before the Immigration Courts, unless the Immigration Judge directs otherwise in a particular case. The Practice Manual does not limit the discretion of Immigration Judges to act in accordance with law and regulation. The Practice Manual is intended to be a "living document," and the Office of the Chief Immigration Judge updates it in response to changes in law and policy, as well as in response to comments by the parties using it. We welcome suggestions and encourage the public to provide comments, to identify errors or ambiguities in the text, and to propose revisions. Information regarding where to send your correspondence is included in Chapter 13 of the Practice Manual.

Download or read book Crossing Law s Border written by Shauna Labman and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UN Refugee Agency considers resettlement – the selection and transfer of refugees from the state where they seek asylum to another state that volunteers to take them – a tool of refugee protection and an expression of international burden sharing. In this account of Canada’s resettlement program from the Indochinese crisis of the 1970s to the Syrian crisis of the 2010s, Shauna Labman explores how rights, responsibilities, and obligations intersect in the absence of a legal scheme for refugee resettlement. In particular, she examines the role of the law on the voluntary act of resettlement and the effect of resettlement on asylum policies. This pathbreaking book looks at the interplay between resettlement and asylum in one of the world’s most successful refugee protection programs and shows how resettlement can either complement or complicate in-country asylum claims at a time when refugee crises and fear of outsiders are causing countries to close their borders to asylum-seekers around the world.

Download or read book Detention of Undocumented Aliens Actions by the INS prior to adoption of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 written by Cushing N. Dolbeare and published by Publications Department American CIVI Office. This book was released on 1990 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the United States detention politics and their impact during the period prior to adoption of the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986. This historical summary of pre-IRCA detention policies was issued in anticipation of a General Accounting Office (GAO) study which was scheduled to be released by mid-1991. The report is divided into nine chapters. The first chapter gives a historical overview of US policies toward detention prior to 1981. It is stated that the unanticipated arrival of some 125,000 Cubans in 1980 through the Mariel boatlift led to the reintroduction of detention. Further, the study notes that the emergency response to Mariel in 1980 became Administration policy in 1981, and documents how the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) made the rule permanent. The second chapter describes who is detained and why. Mention is made of the Reagan Administration's rationale for detention and numerous tables provide information on the INS detention activities, including nationality of people detained in INS centres in certain periods and length of detention. Chapter Three focuses on particularly affected nationalities, specifically: Cubans, Haitians, Salvadorans and Mexicans. The fourth chapter examines the INS detention standards. The report analyses the general standards elaborated in an INS Operational Manual for Service Processing Centers, which formed the basis for the policies and procedures adopted by each centre. Chapter Five looks at the seven INS 'Service Processing Centers' or detention centres. General information is provided on life in a typical INS facility. The sixth chapter concerns 'non-service facilities', local jails, county jails or other places of incarceration to which people were frequently taken when they were first detained. Private facilities are mentioned, including the example of the Houston Center. Detention in federal prison facilities is discussed in Chapter Seven. The eighth chapter focuses on INS detention of minors, with tables showing characteristics of minors in detention and facilities used for detention of minor aliens as well as policies and facilities in those centres. The last chapter deals with access to legal representation, including appeals. An appendix to the report describes the detention facilities operated directly by the INS (excluding contract facilities).

Download or read book Queer Migration and Asylum in Europe written by Richard C. M. Mole and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe is a popular destination for LGBTQ people seeking to escape discrimination and persecution. Yet, while European institutions have done much to promote the legal equality of sexual minorities and a number of states pride themselves on their acceptance of sexual diversity, the image of European tolerance and the reality faced by LGBTQ migrants and asylum seekers are often quite different. To engage with these conflicting discourses, Queer Migration and Asylum in Europe brings together scholars from politics, sociology, urban studies, anthropology and law to analyse how and why queer individuals migrate to or seek asylum in Europe, as well as the legal, social and political frameworks they are forced to navigate to feel at home or to regularise their status in the destination societies. The subjects covered include LGBTQ Latino migrants’ relationship with queer and diasporic spaces in London; diasporic consciousness of queer Polish, Russian and Brazilian migrants in Berlin; the role of the Council of Europe in shaping legal and policy frameworks relating to queer migration and asylum; the challenges facing bisexual asylum seekers; queer asylum and homonationalism in the Netherlands; and the role of space, faith and LGBTQ organisations in Germany, Italy, the UK and France in supporting queer asylum seekers.

"...an institution for those who practise public law...it has the authority that comes from being compiled by an author of singular distinction". (Lord Woolf, from the Foreword to the Fifth Edition) The new edition of this Handbook remains an indispensable source of reference and a guide to the case-law in judicial review. Established as an essential part of the library of any practitioner engaged in public law cases, if offers unrivalled coverage of administrative law, including, but not confined to, the work of the Administrative Court and its procedures. Once again completely revised and up-dated, the seventh edition approximates to a restatement of the law of judicial review, organised around 63 legal principles, each supported by a comprehensive presentation of the sources and an unequalled selection of reported case quotations. It also includes essential procedural rules, forms and guidance issued by the Administrative Court. As in the previous edition, both the Civil Procedure Rules and Human Rights Act 1998 feature prominently as major influences on the shaping of the case-law. Attention is also given to impact of the Supreme Court. Here Michael Fordham casts an experienced eye over the Court's work in the area of judicial review, and assesses the signs from a Court that will be one of the key influences in the development of judicial review in the modern era. The author, a leading member of the English public law bar, and now has been involved in many of the leading judicial review cases in recent years and is the founding editor of the Judicial Review journal.
