Immigration Cases Currently on the Docket for the Supreme Court’s 2024 Term
SCOTUSBlog lists the two immigration cases currently on the docket for the 2023 Term:
Bouarfa v. Mayorkas [Argument 10.15.2024]
Issue(s): Whether a visa petitioner may obtain judicial review when an approved petition is revoked on the basis of nondiscretionary criteria.
Velazquez v. Garland [Argument 11.12.2024]
Issue(s): Whether, when a noncitizen’s voluntary-departure period ends on a weekend or public holiday, a motion to reopen filed the next business day is sufficient to avoid the penalties for failure to depart under 8 U.S.C. § 1229c(d)(1).
Neither case looks to be a blockbuster. Expect more cases to be added as the 2024 Term progresses.
