CASE: Jail Case
CLIENT: Mexican
LOCATION: Ohio
CLIENT’S RESIDENCE: New Jersey
Our firm was retained on September 29, 2010 to have a Mexican national released on bond. He was detained in Seneca County Jail in Tiffin Ohio. Our contact was his employer in New Jersey. Prior to retention, we already told the contact what we needed. Our client came in the United States illegally in March 1999, had no criminal records, was employed, had a permanent home in the U.S., and had two U.S. Citizen children. Upon retention, we immediately contacted the Immigration and Customs Enforcement and explained that our client was not a flight risk. We showed documents including his bank statement, proof of lease, and birth certificates of his U.S. Citizen children. We explained that our client would be prima facie eligible for Cancellation of Removal. The next day, ICE granted our client’s release on a $5000 bond. We immediately spoke with our client’s contact in New Jersey and guided him in the process of posting a bond. We did our own research to look for specific bond companies in New Jersey to aid our client. Our office had to call ICE and the bond company several time to coordinate the information and make sure systems were updated regarding the bond posting. Our client’s contact was hoping he gets released before the weekend, or else he would have to spend an extra two days in jail. On October 1, 2010 Friday, at around 1:45pm, our client was released. He currently is in New Jersey awaiting his hearing where he would apply for cancellation for removal.
