“(Reuters) – Here are some upcoming events of interest to the immigration law community. All times are local unless stated otherwise.
Tuesday, Sept. 7
11 a.m. – U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington, D.C., will hold a status conference in a long-running lawsuit seeking to force U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to disclose years worth of detailed enforcement data. The Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University, which collects and analyzes immigration data, sued ICE for the records in 2014. Last year, the agency told Mehta that reviewing all of the data TRAC is seeking would take more than 66 years.
The case is Long v. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, No. 1:14-cv-00109. For the plaintiffs: Michael Kirkpatrick and Scott Nelson of Public Citizen Litigation Group. For ICE: Jane Lyons and Kathleene Molen of the U.S. Department of Justice.”
