AILA Submits an Amicus Brief on the Two-Step Notice Process
AILA submitted an amicus brief to the Fourth Circuit in Barillas v. Barr arguing that the BIA's conclusion that the two-step process triggers the stop-time rule conflicts with the statute's unambiguous text and unreasonably departs from the agency's consistent recognition that "a 'notice to appear'" is a single document, of which a subsequent hearing notice is not a constituent part.
