Attorney General (AG) Garland ruled that, while rulemaking proceeds and except when a court of appeals has held otherwise, immigration judges and the BIA should apply the standard for administrative closure set out in Avetisyan and W—Y—U—. AILA Executive Director Ben Johnson welcomed “this return to a more effective and efficient immigration court system,” but also noted that “the necessity of this decision only underscores the need for a truly independent immigration court system.”

A case just came down with the following ruling:
Matter of Y-S-L-C-, 26 I&N Dec. 688 (BIA 2015)
(1) The requirements of the Federal Rules of Evidence with respect to the admission of expert testimony are inapposite to a respondent’s testimony regarding events of which he or she has personal knowledge.
(2) Conduct by an Immigration Judge that can be perceived as bullying or hostile is never appropriate, particularly in cases involving minor respondents, and may result in remand to a different Immigration Judge.
