appellate litigation clinic logo

The Appellate Litigation Clinic has won one of its cases before the Board of Immigration Appeals. They successfully argued for the release of their client after demonstrating that the immigration judge did not clearly err when finding that their client would likely be tortured with the acquiescence of the Mexican government and that it would be unreasonable to expect their client to relocate elsewhere in Mexico. This finding was the subject of an appeal last year before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, in which the clinic won a remand to the BIA.
