Q: What is the form or content of a request addressed to the judge to reopen the asylum clock?
A:
When requesting a judge to reopen the asylum clock, you need to file a motion to reopen the proceedings. This motion should be clear and concise, detailing the reasons why the clock should be restarted. Include any relevant facts and legal arguments that support your request.
In the motion, state that you are seeking to have the asylum clock reopened and explain the circumstances that led to its stopping. Provide evidence or documentation that supports your claim, such as court records or other pertinent information. Ensure that your request is based on valid grounds, such as procedural errors or new developments in your case.
It is also helpful to reference any applicable laws or regulations that justify your request. Submit the motion to the appropriate court or judge handling your asylum case. Make sure to follow all procedural requirements and deadlines for filing the motion.
