Our attorneys represented the respondent in Matter of E__F__ which commenced in Immigration
Court in Miami; venue was transferred to Orlando. DHS filed charges seeking our client’s
removal for a conviction of a crime involving a controlled substance and a drug trafficking and
illicit trafficking aggravated felony.
The attorneys successfully argued that the conviction, conspiracy to possess cocaine with intent
to sell, is neither an aggravated felony nor a particularly serious crime and therefore respondent’s
asylum status could not be terminated. After spirited advocacy, the Immigration Judge agreed
and ordered proceedings terminated.
We anticipate our client’s release from detention at ICE/Baker in the near term.
