Removal Proceedings Terminated for Spouse of US Marine

Court:

Our clients, a U.S. Marine and his newlywed and undocumented spouse were stopped at a Border Patrol Checkpoint on I-8 while the family was traveling to the Marine’s new duty station to San Diego. The spouse was placed into removal proceedings. On a pro bono basis, we negotiated with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to dismiss the removal proceedings, and applied for the spouse to be paroled into the United States so she may receive lawful permanent residence or a green card.
