What happens during a deportation hearing?

During a deportation hearing in Arizona, an individual’s right to remain in the United States is determined. The hearing is held before a judge in an immigration court. The individual has the right to be represented by an attorney and to defend themselves during the proceeding. At the beginning of the hearing, the judge will review the individual’s case, which may include any prior immigration proceedings. The individual’s attorney may then make a case for why the individual should not be deported. The judge will then hear from witnesses, such as the individual’s family or employers, as well as from the government, who may present evidence against the individual. This may include documentation of criminal activity or the individual’s immigration status. When both sides have finished presenting their case, the judge will decide whether the individual should be deported. The judge will review the evidence and consider the facts of the case before making a decision. If the individual is ordered to leave, the judge will also determine when and where the deportation should take place. The judge will also determine whether the individual should receive any benefits or protections before the deportation.
