The number of pending cases in immigration courts has hit a new record of over 580,000, according to a Monday report from a Syracuse University research organization, which noted the backlog is persisting despite a recent hiring push for immigration judges.
There were 585,930 pending immigration court cases as of April, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, which is a Syracuse University data organization. The group also tracks the average time cases have been sitting in immigration court, and as of last month, it was 670 days.
