Deportation Review Gives Reprieves To 2,609 Immigrants
By Elise Foley


WASHINGTON -- A review of about 300,000 pending deportation cases resulted in 2,609 men and women being allowed to stay in the U.S. -- at least temporarily -- as of the end of March because the government considers them low priority, the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse found. The findings, based on a Freedom of Information Act request, were released on Thursday and show the scope of a review process already underway in 69 immigration courts and expanding to Seattle, Detroit, New Orleans and Orlando in coming months.
