Denver – A federal judge at Denver is ready to listen to arguments on Friday about whether an immigration and work activist who took refuge in the churches of Colorado To avoid deportation during the first Trump administration, you must free yourself from arrest.
Jeanette Vizgurra It was arrested by the United States immigration and customs application On March 17 and is detained at its immigration detention center in the Denver suburbs.
ICE says that Vizguerra entered the United States illegally from Mexico in 1997 and is stopped waiting for deportation. In a statement shortly after his arrest, ICE said that the mother of four children has a final deportation order and “has received due legal process in the United States immigration court.”
But his lawyers say the order is not valid. They have presented a legal challenge asking the American district judge Nina Wang to order the federal authorities to release her.
Wang issued an order stopping the deportation of Bizguerra while the legal challenge is developed.
ICE began trying to deport Vizguerra in 2009 during the administration of Obama after it was arrested in the Denver suburbs and discovered that it had a fraudulent social security card with its own name and date of birth, but the number of another person, according to a 2019 demand that presented against ICE. Vizguerra did not know that the number belonged to another person at that time, according to the demand.
While a judge issued an order of removal against her, he also received the option to leave the country voluntarily, which he finally did to try to see his mother before he died in 2012, their lawyers said in the current request before Wang.
As Vizguerra left alone before re -entered the US.
It is not clear how soon Wang could govern. But it has noticed that the case raises “complex problems” on the immigration law and could not find a similar case.
