AILA Amicus Brief on Whether Reinstatement Bar on "Relief" Bars Asylum Applications
AILA filed an amicus brief with the Fifth Circuit in Ramirez-Mejia v. Lynch supporting rehearing en banc and arguing that the more specific bars to asylum in the asylum statute govern the question and control, rather than the more general bar on "relief" in the reinstatement statute.
