AILA Submits Amicus Brief on Whether Detention Becomes Unreasonable After One Year
AILA submitted an amicus brief in Reid v. Donelan, urging the First Circuit to find that the district court committed an error in holding that: detention without a bond hearing pending completion of removal proceedings only is likely to be unreasonable when it has stretched on for more than one year, rather than six months; and in order to obtain an individualized bond hearing, noncitizens first must file a petition for habeas corpus and prove that their detention has been unreasonably prolonged.
