ICE CAN MOVE YOU—AND CHANGE YOUR BOND RIGHTS ICE may not have to win its legal argument where it arrests you. It may simply move you somewhere the law is more favorable to the government. The Third Circuit covering New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the U.S. Virgin Islands has ruled that ICE cannot automatically detain certain longtime immigrants without access to a bond hearing. But ICE can arrest someone in New Jersey and rapidly transfer that person to Texas or Louisiana, where the controlling immigration detention law may be far less favorable. Move the person and you may move the law controlling that person’s freedom. That is why the first hours after an ICE arrest can be critical. An immigration lawyer may need to immediately file a federal habeas corpus petition and request an emergency court order preventing ICE from transferring the person outside the jurisdiction. A pending asylum or adjustment-of-status application does not automatically prevent arrest or detention. But an arrest is not a deportation, detention is not a denial, and ICE does not always have the legal authority to hold someone without access to bond. If someone you love is arrested by ICE, do not wait several days hoping the government will release them. Get experienced immigration counsel involved immediately before ICE puts that person on a plane.
