Getting arrested and detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) can be a harrowing experience. In many cases, people arrested in Tempe are often taken to detention centers in Florence or Eloy. This distance from Tempe makes it difficult for detainees or their loved ones to get the legal representation they need on time.
However, there may be help available through a Temple immigration bond lawyer who can explore release options and hopefully secure a bond for the detainee’s release. At New Frontier Immigration Law, we can help clients in both detention facilities and other facilities in Arizona reunite with their families. Contact us to discuss this situation with an immigration attorney today.
Deportation proceedings after ICE detention can be paused or stopped if the detainee qualifies for a bond hearing. An immigration bond is a detainee’s way of assuring the court that, even after they are released from ICE’s custody, they will still attend court proceedings regarding their immigration issues and obey the court’s orders, including remaining within specified geographical limits. While immigration bond amounts can be reasonable, certain factors influence how much a detainee or their loved ones have to pay. These include:
Delivery bond amounts are a minimum of $1,500, but many exceed $10,000. These are subject to the judge’s discretion if awarded. Speaking of judicial discretion, the judge has a lot of leeway when deciding immigration bond cases.
However, a key determinant for whether an immigrant will be released on a bond or not is their perceived danger to the local community. Qualified individuals in good moral standing can be released to their loved ones for much lower fees than those who pose a risk.
Before an ICE detainee is released on bond, they must meet certain conditions. These include:
Release conditions typically vary, depending on the individual’s peculiar circumstances. The court can deny the non-native release on the grounds of unlawful entry, threat to national security, and/or a history of criminal activity. However, an experienced Tempe immigration bond attorney can work with the court to ensure fair release terms for the immigrant.
A release bond often means that you get to spend as much time as possible with your loved ones while your immigration case is ongoing. Failure to secure one means that ICE may detain you until the conclusion of your immigration proceedings.
