Motions and Briefs Filed with the Immigration Court

Motions and briefs are legal documents filed with the immigration court to request specific relief or to argue a particular legal issue. Common motions in immigration court proceedings include motions to terminate proceedings, motions to suppress evidence, and motions for a continuance. Briefs are written arguments submitted to the court to support a particular position or to respond to arguments made by the opposing party. These documents should be well-researched, clearly written, and properly formatted in accordance with the court’s rules and procedures.
