Description
In this session, Updates on Survivors in Removal Proceedings, speakers and participants will discuss the latest strategies in representing survivors in proceedings, including continuances under Sanchez-Sosa after Mayen and strategies for getting survivors out of proceedings. We will also discuss the latest approaches to getting survivors back into proceedings (including overcoming reinstatement in front of an IJ) and seeking relief such as VAWA Cancellation of Removal and U visa inadmissibility waivers.
