what is a master hearing in immigration court?
104733
A master calendar hearing is the first hearing an alien gets when he is put in removal (deportation) proceedings.  That is where he pleads to the charges and says what relief he will request if he qualifies for any.   It is called a master hearing because they give you an appointment time with a bunch of other people and it's first come first served, kinda like when you go to court for a ticket.\n\n  Eventually the person will get what is called an individual calendar hearing.  That's when you get to tell the judge why you should not be deported and you present evidence and testimony to show how you qualify for some type of relief or green card or whatever.  The courtroom is all yours for your three or four hours while you plead your case, hopefully with an attorney.

contact your immigration attorney and they will send official letter requesting information (actually you could do that yourself) with the case number.

Are you looking for a "transcript" or an "opinion" of the court?  If you're seeking only the written opinion, you can get it from Westlaw or http://www.courts.state.co.us/\n\nHowever, if you do, indeed, want an actual transcript of a hearing, plan on spending a lot of money.  Your best bet is to contact the Clerk of the Court (can be found at the website mentioned earlier) and request a copy.  It is likely that a deposit will be required -- transcripts aren't cheap.

Hmm, my guess is see if there were any newspaper reports as to when the court hearing will be or to just contact a local court house and ask them how to gain this information.\n\nGood luck!

There are four people involved in every Court hearing - the judge, the clerk, the party (or attorney) on the other side and you.\nEach Court runs by the rules that the judge sets, and they are different in each County, sometimes in each Courtroom.\nIf you go the the website for the county in which the Court is located, there will probably be a link to the Court Clerk, but  don't count on being able to ask for a continuance by e-mail - usually someone has to show up on the scheduled date and time and ask for a continuance in front of the Judge, so the other party has a chance to object. If it is the party to the hearing, that;s OK; if it;s an attorney fro the party to the hearing, that's OK, too; if it's someone else, they run the risk of being accused of practicing law without a license if they appear in Court and speak for the party to the hearing.

It is a kind of trial authorized by law to be held before a judge without the usual full hearing.  In your case I gues it has to do with eviction, a legal action whereby your landlord recovers control of hte premises from you.  Sounds as if you might ahve to leave.  But you might want to check with a lawyer yourself - some other landlords/tenants laws might apply.\n\ni hope this helps.

You can give it a shot, but chances are it won't speed up the process.  I work for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and I get people who call me once a week asking about the status of their case.  Repeated phone calls or letters won't make me put their case in front of anyone else's.  The rule is first-in-first-out.  It's going to take some time, so the best advice I can give you is to be patient and realize most Federal workers have huge backlogs in their workload.

Since you had an attorney, I urge you to speak with him.  It appears that, with what you disclosed here, you have an excellent case.  Why aren't you considering pressing charges against immigration officials?

removal proceedings is when they get the ball rolling on someone's deportation paperwork. Deportation is the act of physically removing you or sending you back to your native land. \n\nHope that helps.

Ok, from what you say you were actually 'refused leave to enter' and then removed from the UK. In UK law the term deportation has a different and more serious meaning. Sounds like splitting hairs I know but it is quite an important distinction. \n\nI've seen your other question - re what you should say to immigration - and, given the experience you describe here, I can understand why you ask it. However you do need to be absolutely open and honest if you try to return. Because you have been refused entry before your case will be scrutinised with particular care and any omissions or half truths are very likely to come to light, with the result that a second refusal would follow.\n\nUnfortunately it won't be easy to persuade immigration of your case. What they are concerned with is your intentions : details regarding employment, finance etc are simply evidence which helps them to assess whether your stated intentions are genuine and realistic. They are not going to be persuaded simply by the fact that you now have a job - if you came and things worked out with your relationship then presumably you would return to that job either temporarily only or not at all. What you need to do is demonstrate either that your circumstances have changed or that you have re-appraised your plans and that they no longer raise any immigration concerns.\n\nEasy to say, harder to do. You do need to show that there's enough money available to you during your stay, either from your own resources or through your sponsor. If you'd be staying at a private address while here then obviously you wouldn't need accommodation costs so less money required. These things can only ever be a rule of thumb because there are no set rules - personally I'd suggest that £1,000 for a stay of around a month with no accommodation expenses looks comfortable. It could obviously be done cheaper but bear in mind you'd need to satisfy immigration that you could also cover the cost of any emergencies that might happen whilst here. \n\nIf you have that kind of money available, good. However Immigration will be interested to know where the money came from. As you're going through a divorce it may well be that your financial position is temporarily a little more insecure than usually it would be. In the way of divorces things can also improve quite rapidly once things begin to move. They may well understand that, in these circumstances, a person's financial standing can improve rapidly - provided that the money is there to back up your statements.\n\nI'd strongly suggest that you apply for a visa to your nearest UK Embassy or Consulate in the US before trying to travel. As you know you can travel without but there's a risk that you'd lose the cost of your ticket if you were refused entry at the airport again. It also gives you the chance to put your case better - never easy to do that when exhausted after a long, transatlantic flight.\n\nI'm sorry this is mostly quite a negative response. Unfortunately it is a really difficult situation with no cast-iron guarantees and I didn't want to gloss over that. I really hope this all works out for you.

You may be talking about a Morrissey hearing, depending on what state you're in:\n\nhttp://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/protection/dv/resdoc.htm#morrissey

Consolidation of Deportation and Exclusion Proceedings into Removal Proceedings\n\nAs of April 1, 1997, the new law consolidates deportation and exclusion proceedings into "removal" proceedings. The result is to limit most forms of relief from deportation while it expands forms of relief for persons who would formerly have been in exclusion proceedings. \nFor example, voluntary departure is limited to 120 days (with an optional bond) prior to the commencement or conclusion of removal proceedings and 60 days with a mandatory bond after the conclusion of a removal proceeding. Presently, it is common for respondents in deportation proceedings to receive up to six months of voluntary departure. Applicants in exclusion proceedings are not currently eligible for voluntary departure. \n\nSuspension of deportation and waivers for long-time permanent residents ("212C" waivers) are consolidated into a new form of relief called "cancellation of removal". In general, the standards for what was suspension of deportation and 212C waivers are tightened considerably. The definition of an "aggravated felon" (Section 321) is modified to include almost all persons who have been convicted of a felony. Aggravated felons are generally ineligible for 212C relief. \n\nSection 304 amends hearing procedures, eliminating the current requirement that notices be provided in Spanish as well as in English. \n\nSection 380 provides for penalties of up to $500 per day for aliens subject to final orders of removal who willfully fail or refuse to depart, make timely application for travel documents, or present themselves for removal before the INS. This section becomes effective on April 1, 1997. \n\nSection 306 of the new law practically immunizes the Immigration Courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals from judicial review. The Federal Appeals Courts are stripped of jurisdiction to review denials of discretionary relief including voluntary departure, adjustment of status, cancellation of removal, and waivers under 212(c), 212(h) (for criminal convictions), and 212(i) (for fraud or misrepresentation). Where judicial review still exists (e.g., contested orders of removal and requests for asylum), the amount of time permitted to submit a Petition for Review to the Federal Appeals Court is shortened from 90 to 30 days. No longer will the submission of a Petition for Review result in an automatic stay of removal for the alien. The standards for obtaining a writ of habeas corpus are tightened considerably. The effective dates of the judicial review provisions are complex and do not conform with the April 1, 1997 effective date of other provisions of the law.
