Case of Z.L.

We filed a Freedom of Information Act request for Z with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE had entered a finding of 212(a)(6)(C)(i) inadmissibility against Z, but Z did not understand the reason. But after nine months, ICE failed to turn over any documents — with no end in sight. So we decided to file a FOIA delay lawsuit. Within a week of filing the lawsuit, ICE turned over more than 20 pages, including the specifics of its allegations against Z.
