US judge: Immigration courts must consider non-cash bond
Updated 3:32 pm, Monday, April 13, 2015
SEATTLE (AP) — A federal judge in Seattle says immigration judges in western Washington must consider whether to release detained immigrants without requiring cash bonds.
U.S. District Judge Robert Lasnik issued the ruling Monday in a case brought by a Honduran woman who was held in custody for five months while she sought political asylum because she couldn't afford to pay her bond, which was first set at $7,500 and then lowered to $3,500.
Lawyers with the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project and the American Civil Liberties Union sued on behalf of Maria Sandra Rivera. They said they wanted to challenge a longstanding practice of local immigration judges to always require a cash bond before releasing detainees — even though federal law allows the detainees to be released on other conditions of supervision.
Activists said the old policy had been in place for 15 years and resulted in poor immigrants being stuck in detention solely because of their poverty.

How about deportation, if bonds are not achievable? They don't have cash, they do not have expensive wrist watches, it is illegal to take their first born. They have no personal recognizance to rely on, they broke the law coming in, "Your Honor, I see no choice but to send them back home, do you?"
"Uhh, no sir, I will not sign a personal guarantee for them, either! Do you, Your Honor intend to?"Last edited by kevinssdad; 04-14-2015 at 12:37 PM.

The fact of the matter is these people think like criminals, whine like criminals and act like criminals, because they are criminals. Lock 'em u and throw away the key.A Nation Without Borders Is Not A Nation - Ronald Reagan
