Immigration court says missing mail no longer an excuse to avoid deportation
If migrants miss their immigration court dates because they moved and didn't get notices at their new address, they cannot come crying to judges later, asking them to block their deportation, the top immigration appeals court has ruled.
TL;DR
- Migrants who miss immigration court dates due to not receiving notices at a new address cannot use this as an excuse to block deportation.
- The top immigration appeals court made this ruling.
- Failure to update one's address with the court means potential deportation.
