What is a “Motion to Stay Deportation”?
A Motion to Stay Deportation is a legal document filed with the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE. It can be requested by a person who is facing deportation proceedings in the state of Washington. The motion requests that the deportation be put on hold, or “stayed”, while a more detailed review of the case is conducted. This motion is usually filed by the person who is facing deportation or by an attorney on their behalf. The motion to stay deportation requests that the deportation proceedings be put on hold while the person’s case is reviewed in more detail. This may include additional paperwork such as a more detailed application for asylum or cancellation of removal, or further documentation to support the person’s case. The person can also use this motion to request a stay of deportation in order to receive further legal advice or services from an attorney. Once the motion is filed, ICE will either approve or deny the motion. If approved, the deportation proceedings will be put on hold while the person’s case is further reviewed. This will give the person time to obtain the necessary documents or receive legal services to better present their case. If the motion is denied, the deportation proceedings can continue. If a person is facing deportation in the state of Washington, they may be able to file a Motion to Stay Deportation. It’s important to seek legal advice when filing this motion and make sure to provide all necessary information and paperwork in order to have the best chance of ICE granting the motion.

Se ha hecho una petición para parar una deportación cuando la persona, o un abogado, cree que la deportación no es legal o que puede estar a punto de suceder una injusticia. Este recurso se presenta en los Estados Unidos a través del Tribunal de Inmigración. En el estado de Washington, una persona tiene dos opciones: puede presentar una moción de detención de deportación directamente ante el Tribunal de Inmigración o puede presentar una moción ante el agente del servicio de inmigración o ICE. La moción para detener la deportación, conocida como DACA, se presenta para definir la condición legal a la cual un inmigrante tiene derecho. Esto permite a los inmigrantes que han vivido en los Estados Unidos de forma continua tener derecho a una audiencia de deportación. Las personas que tienen una moción de detención de deportación aceptada tienen la oportunidad de explicar el motivo por el cual no deberían ser deportadas. El tribunal evaluará cuidadosamente la situación y los testigos serán escuchados. Si el tribunal decide que el inmigrante tiene una buena causa para permanecer en los Estados Unidos, el inmigrante podría recibir una estancia temporal o permanente.
