LEGAL ANNOUCEMENTS


GARCIA PEREZ SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

On September 26, 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of
Washington approved the settlement agreement in Garcia Perez v. USCIS, No.
2:22-cv-00806-JHC. The settlement requires USCIS and EOIR to provide mechanisms
that (1) notify asylum applicants about how many days are on their "Asylum EAD
Clock" for work permit purposes and (2) allow asylum applicants to challenge
clock stoppages. The settlement also provides specific relief to three
subclasses regarding certain government policies to ensure the Asylum EAD clocks
of those individuals do not stop or restart.

MENDEZ ROJAS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

Mendez Rojas is a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of asylum seekers
challenging the federal government’s failure to give them notice of the one-year
deadline for filing asylum applications as well as its failure to guarantee them
a mechanism through which to abide by that deadline.

On March 29, 2018, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment and
ordered the government to provide notice to class members of the one-year filing
deadline and to adopt, publicize, and implement uniform procedural mechanisms
that will ensure that class members are able to file their asylum applications
in a timely manner. The parties have now reached a settlement agreement for
implementing the court’s order.

PADILLA V. ICE

The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington has approved a
settlement agreement regarding certain class members in Padilla v. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement, No. 2:18-cv-00928-MJP (W.D. Wash.). The agreement
guarantees that individuals who arrive at or enter the United States and express
a fear of return to their country of origin must receive a credible fear
interview (CFI) within 60 days of being referred for the interview. If the
government does not abide by the timeline, then individuals must be placed into
removal proceedings under 8 U.S.C. § 1229a, where they can apply for asylum and
other relief.
