The Practice Manual is a comprehensive guide that sets forth uniform procedures, recommendations, and requirements for practice before the Immigration Courts. The requirements set forth in this manual are binding on the parties who appear before the Immigration Courts, unless the Immigration Judge directs otherwise in a particular case. The Practice Manual does not limit the discretion of Immigration Judges to act in accordance with law and regulation. The Practice Manual is intended to be a "living document," and the Office of the Chief Immigration Judge updates it in response to changes in law and policy, as well as in response to comments by the parties using it. We welcome suggestions and encourage the public to provide comments, to identify errors or ambiguities in the text, and to propose revisions. Information regarding where to send your correspondence is included in Chapter 13 of the Practice Manual.

Given the ever-present debate over immigration law and policies since the inception of our nation, combined with recent controversies over the Arizona immigration laws and the executive order authorizing Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), it is without a doubt that immigration law is an important area to study. The entire immigration legal system, embodied within the Executive Office for Immigration Review, is completely under the control of the Department of Justice and hence, the Attorney General of the United States. The Immigration Court and the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) are the two systems of interest within this dissertation. The two administrative agencies are given much deference in their decision-making process. This dissertation seeks to study whether Immigration Judges and BIA members base the decision-making process on strictly legal principles, and not extra-legal factors. For this dissertation, I only study asylum case outcomes. At the Immigration Judge level, I coded important factors of each Immigration Judge and estimated an OLS regression of which of these factors influence decision-making. At the BIA level, I conducted a two-level factor test when coding my variables. At the first level, I coded for BIA member factors. At the second level, I coded for respondent factors. The quantitative study for the BIA estimates a Multinomial Logit Regression Model to determine which factors were important in predicting BIA judge votes in these asylum cases. The results show that both Immigration Judges and BIA member are affected by extralegal factors. This means that because the process is mostly unchecked, these "judges" enjoy a wide latitude of discretion in the decision-making process, especially in asylum cases, where discretion plays a large role. The findings confirm that these decision-makers do not strictly adhere to a legal reading of the law, but that they are affected by their own characteristics, as well as characteristics of the respondent before them.

"Despite public concern with the increasing politicization of U.S. immigration courts, few people are aware of the system's fundamental flaw: the immigration courts are not really 'courts' but an office of the Department of Justice--the nation's law enforcement agency. Alison Peck's original and surprising account shows how paranoia sparked by World War II and the War on Terror drove the structure of the immigration courts. Focusing on previously unstudied decisions in the Roosevelt and Bush administrations, this book divulges both the human tragedy of our current immigration system and the human crises that led to its creation. Peck provides an accessible legal analysis of recent events to make the case for independent immigration courts, proposing that the courts be moved into an independent, Article I court system. As long as the immigration courts remain under the authority of the attorney general, the administration of immigration justice will remain a game of political football--with people's very lives on the line." -- back cover.

Numerous studies have shown dramatic variations in the rates that immigration judges grant asylum. What these studies have failed to adequately explain as of yet is why? In attempting to understand the behavior of immigration judges in asylum cases, scholars have generally taken one of two approaches, either examining immigration judge behavior through top-down bureaucratic models or with models developed through the study of the judiciary. From these studies we have learned that similarly situated asylum applicants have different chances of success based merely on the ideological leanings of the judge who decides their case. We also have learned that judges respond to top down extraneous pressures by granting more or fewer asylum petitions. What we don't know is how the individual preferences of immigration judges are affected by extraneous factors. I believe that the primary reason previous studies have been deficient is their failure to adequately consider how immigration judges' decisions are influenced by their status as administrative law judges who are tasked with making hundreds of verdicts a year. As administrative law judges, immigration judges sit within a web of oversight that is unlike any other judiciary. They have a caseload that is more akin to a street-level bureaucrat than most members of the judiciary. However, as members of the judiciary they are different from the type of agents who are the subject of most top-down studies of bureaucracies. I hypothesize that in order to fully understand the behavior of immigration judges in asylum cases, any model must contain a combination of attitudinal, institutional, legal and exogenous variables which influence immigration judges in their decisions to grant or deny asylum. Recognizing that immigration judges sit within a rather unique context, a multi-institutional approach examining immigration judges as both administrative law judges as well as street level bureaucrats working within a legal context provides the best explanation for why these judges behave so differently. The results confirm a number of previous findings. Immigration judge ideology does influence the rate that they grant asylum. Political, economic and social factors also influence whether immigration judges grant asylum. The results also point to a number of new conclusions that can be drawn about the behavior of immigration judges in particular as well as administrative law judges in general. Like street level bureaucrats, as caseload increases, the influence of individual ideology in the decision process also increases. Moreover, the results reveal that judges with different ideological leanings respond to the same variables differently. Factors that might increase the likelihood that a liberal judge will grant asylum, actually decrease the likelihood that a conservative judge would grant asylum. These results have important policy as well as legal ramifications. Furthermore, they call into question generally held notions of both judicial and bureaucratic behavior and, as such, provide an important contribution to the discipline.

El Tribunal de Inmigración November 2, 2017 The Immigration Court Practice Manual is a comprehensive guide that sets forth uniform procedures, recommendations, and requirements for practice before the Immigration Courts. The requirements set forth in this manual are binding on the parties who appear before the Immigration Courts unless the Immigration Judge directs otherwise in a particular case. With everything that has been going on in the news recently regarding immigration reform, we thought it a good idea to publish this so the general public would have a better understanding of the process the Immigration Court goes through. In fact, we decided to translate the first chapter into Spanish for the benefit of those about to go through the process. If we receive enough positive feedback, we will go ahead and translate the rest of the manual as well. Este manual se proporciona para la información y la conveniencia del público en general y de las partes que comparecen ante los Tribunales de Inmigración.

Although there are legal norms to secure the uniform treatment of asylum claims in the United States, anecdotal and empirical evidence suggest that strategic and economic interests also influence asylum outcomes. Previous research has demonstrated considerable variation in how immigration judges decide seemingly similar cases, which implies a host of legal concerns—not the least of which is whether judicial bias is more determinative of the decision to admit those fleeing persecution to the United States than is the merit of the claim. These disparities also raise important policy considerations about how to fix what many perceive to be a broken adjudication system. With theoretical sophistication and empirical rigor, Immigration Judges and U.S. Asylum Policy investigates more than 500,000 asylum cases that were decided by U.S. immigration judges between 1990 and 2010. The authors find that judges treat certain facts about an asylum applicant more objectively than others: facts determined to be legally relevant tend to be treated similarly by judges of different political ideologies, while facts considered extralegal are treated subjectively. Furthermore, the authors examine how local economic and political conditions as well as congressional reforms have affected outcomes in asylum cases, concluding with a series of policy recommendations aimed at improving the quality of immigration law decision making rather than trying to reduce disparities between decision makers.
