Post-Conclusion Motions in Immigration Court
Maximize your chances in post-conclusion motions with our expert legal advocacy.
Navigating Crucial Post-Decision Opportunities:
Post-conclusion motions in immigration court represent critical opportunities to address issues or new developments after a case has concluded. At Novo Legal Group, we understand the importance of these motions as a potential "second chance" for individuals facing adverse immigration decisions. Given that these motions are often a person's final opportunity for relief, and subsequent motions are typically denied, it's crucial to have exceptional legal representation to ensure the best possible outcome.
Types of Post-Conclusion Motions
Our expertise covers a range of post-conclusion motions, including:
Motions to Reopen
- When Permitted: This motion can be filed to present new facts or evidence not available at the original hearing, or if circumstances have changed since the hearing.
- Requirements for Success: To win, you must show that the new evidence is material and would likely change the outcome of the case. The motion must be supported by affidavits or other evidentiary material.
- Importance of Expert Representation: An experienced attorney can skillfully identify and articulate the relevance of new evidence, ensuring that the motion meets the stringent requirements for consideration.
Motions to Rescind and Reissue
- When Permitted: These motions apply to cases where an individual was ordered removed in absentia (without being present) and seeks to have that order rescinded.
- Requirements for Success: The key is to demonstrate that the absence was due to exceptional circumstances, like serious illness or miscommunication.
- Importance of Expert Representation: Crafting a compelling motion in these cases requires a detailed understanding of what constitutes exceptional circumstances and the ability to present a persuasive argument.
Motions to Reconsider
- When Permitted: This motion is appropriate when you believe the decision in your case was based on incorrect application of law or policy.
- Requirements for Success: Success hinges on demonstrating that the decision was legally erroneous based on the laws and policies at the time of the decision.
- Importance of Expert Representation: An attorney with a deep understanding of immigration law is essential to identify legal errors and present a robust argument for reconsideration.
