CASE: Bond Redetermination Hearing
APPLICANT: Chinese
LOCATION: Florence Immigration Court AZ
Our office was contacted in December of 2012 regarding one Chinese person who was detained in Florence, Arizona. He tried to enter the United States without valid documents and was incarcerated by immigration officers.
Prior to retention, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement set a bond amount of $15,000. Our client wished to have that reduced so we filed a motion for bond redetermination with the Florence Immigration Court in Arizona. Our office communicated with him and his U.S. resident relative in New York, and gathered as much information regarding his relief, equities, criminal record, family ties, and financial ability to post bond. We also gathered supporting documents from our client’s relatives, from proof of their status and residence, to bank statements and tax returns.
On January 11, 2013, we represented our client at his Florence Arizona Immigration Court bond re-determination hearing. During the bond re-determination hearing, we explained to the Court that our client already passed his credible fear interview, was not a flight risk, had established his residence upon release, had established his financial ability to post bond, and that he had ample family ties in the United States who submitted proof of his residence and immigration status. Moreover, our office explained that his lack of criminal record, designated address with contact information from his relative in the United States, ability to post bond, and eligibility for asylum relief clearly demonstrate that the bond should be reduced. At the end of the hearing, the Immigration Judge took our arguments into account and reduced the bond amount to only $6000.
