Does section 1252(i) of the Immigration and Customs Code apply to an alien who has been convicted of a criminal offence?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Adaka v. I.N.S., 19 F.3d 25 (9th Cir. 1994):
Section 1252(i) provides that "[i]n the case of an alien who is convicted of an offense which makes the alien subject to deportation, the Attorney General shall begin any deportation proceeding as expeditiously as possible after the date of the conviction." This court has held that section 1252(i) does not create a private right of action for aliens. 2 See Urbina-Mauricio v. INS, 989 F.2d 1085, 1088 (9th Cir.1993).
