Legal Question in Immigration Law in Georgia

212 (a) (7) (a) (i) (I)

A family member who lived in the US for 25 years travelled back home using a document I-512. Couple years later he was charged with notice: section 212 (a) (2) (a) (i) (I) - crime involving moral turpitude. He spent 3 months in Jail.

Today he was arrested and the immigration judge found the respondent removable as charged and order him removed from the US. Today charge is 212 (a) (7) (a) (i) (I) - no valid immigrant or entry document.

Is there any exception or can he appeal?

Dear Inquirer:

If an Immigration Judge ordered removal, you have 30 days to file an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). Of course, he would need a basis to argue that the Immigration Judge erred as a matter of law or abused his discretion in ordering the client deported or denying relief.

I recommend that you email [email protected] or visit www.hanlonlawgroup.com if you would like to schedule a confidential consultation to discuss this matter further.
