Immigration Court Backlog at Record High

Immigration courts are facing a record backlog, a new report says.

The number of cases pending before Immigration courts reached a record high by the end of December, according to a new report.

By the end of last year, the number of cases awaiting resolution in Immigration courts was roughly 268,000, according to Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a non-partisan research organization the operates out of Syracuse University.

The case backlog was 44 percent higher than it was in 2008, TRAC found.

The average time these cases had been pending, TRAC said, was 467 days.
California led states with the longest wait time – 639 days, followed by Massachusetts with 615 and Nebraska with 511 days.

Among the countries with the most people involved in Immigration Court cases, people from Armenia had the longest wait – 886, nearly twice the national average of 467 days, the report said.

Other nationalities that waited the longest were Indonesians, Albanians, Iranians and Pakistanis.

Some courts, however, made a dent in their backlog, according to TRAC.

Among courts with at least 1,000 pending cases, the one in Lumpkin, Georgia saw a 57 percent decline. Another court, in Puerto Rico, had an 11 percent decline and one in Dallas, Texas dropped by 7 percent

The backlog can be fixed real quick. Hire more judges, and eliminate the red tape. Simple court document. NAME...ADDRESS....Phone#....DOCUMENTS OF CITIZENSHIP PROVIDED...... IF NONE INDICATE. FAMILY MEMBERS HERE IN USA............. THEIR ADDRESS............


COURT DECISION DEPORT........ Y/N DATE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

JUDGES SIGNITURE............

DEFENDANT'S PHOTO ATTACH WITH COPY OF FINGERPRINTS.



Thats all that is needed 20 minutes and ship them out. Mass deport them using buses, trains, trucks or whatever is available. Hire unemployeed truckers to transport them. Sell the deportees property to pay costs of deportation.

This is the nonsense we have to go through. Personally I don't think illegals are entitled to our court system at all. If you can't provide proof of citizenship or at least major evidence to suggest one is judge signature after fingerprints and dna test taken and deported. If we know hands down someone is an illegal which is 4/5th's of the time they should be gone within 24 hours. Let them go to court in their country to complain.

I may not be responding here as much as I have for awhile...Wife just had knee replacement surgery so I am playing Mr. Mom and Nancy Nurse here for a few weeks. My heart and spirit continues in the push to hault the invasion of illegals. I will respond with comments as I have time

God Bless Everyone and GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
