Q: Deportaion
My husband is currently serving time in a federal prison he also has a INS detainer (possible deportation) He came to the states with a asylum case convention against torture. My question is approx. when they take him to immigration jail how long can they keep him there? we will be fighting our case there becasue if he does get deported his life will be in danger Also he is no longer a citizen of that country even though he was born there a withdrew from his citizienship can he still be deported there if he is not a citizen?
A: If your husband is in ICE custody, ordinarily, he will have the right to a bond hearing where an Immigration Judge can redetermine his custody. Your husband will also have an opportunity to show that he deserves relief from deportation in Immigration Court. Good luck.
