On July 29, 2024, a new EOIR final rule—Efficient Case and Docket Management in Immigration Proceedings—went into effect. Promulgated mainly in response to several Trump-era attempted regulatory and BIA changes, the new regulations, among a host of provisions, codify the authority of IJs and the Board to administratively close, recalendar, and terminate proceedings, and provide several factors to be considered in each scenario.

The recent law regarding NTAs keeps evolving (Matter of Campos Chavez and Matter of R-T-P) permitting new ways for DHS to remedy their claims processing violations and on August 22, 2024, EOIR issued a new memorandum on NTAs and case docketing.

Join the Removal Defense Section as they discuss:

  • The rule’s history and its different provisions
  • Practice tips for using the new rule to your client’s advantage
  • Issues and questions left unaddressed in the new regulations
  • Matter of Campos Chavez and Matter of R-T-P
