EOIR Has Closed or Limited to Detained Cases All Immigration Courts – March 20, 2020

The Executive Office for Immigration Review has closed a number of courts and the remainder are hearing only a limited subset of cases. Only detained individuals are having cases heard at the nation’s immigration courts. This is essentially what the unions for ICE attorneys and the immigration judges, along with the American Immigration Lawyers Association were asking for as a safety measure given how overcrowded the courts could be.
