SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 23 – Gabrae Hylton
pleaded guilty to third degree
rape in 2007 and now is
detained facing deportation by
ICE. He sued.
On
November 23 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
John G. Koeltl held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it, live tweeting that
Judge Koeltl says his deputy
knows the head of
@Bronxdefenders , but that
won't impact the case.
Hylton has been
detained for 10 months and
wants a bond hearing.
Judge
Koetlt: You're asking me to
read Velasco-Lopez as
authority in the 2d Circuit I
should indicate to the
immigration authorities should
be followed in this case.
But shouldn't the
immigration judge be doing
that as a fair reading of the
law in this
Circuit?
Bronx Defenders cited a Third
Circuit case, 965 F.3d 203.
Judge Koeltl
questioned whether the
immigration judge would in
fact hold a hearing and apply
the right standard.
He took the case
under advisement, to rule
later.
The case is
Hylton v. Decker et al.,
20-cv-5994 (Koeltl)
