Normally, at the Kansas City Immigration Court, it takes a month or longer to get a trial date scheduled for people who are detained (can be 18 months for non-detained cases). Last week, we had a scheduling hearing on Thursday and asked for the next available time. The Judge graciously gave us her next opening, in six days. Therefore, our employees had to cram a month’s work of work into just six days (of course it was really only 4 because of the weekend). Today we won that trial, and he is home with his family.It was so important to him to get home as quickly as possible, because he was separated from his 8-year-old daughter who needed him and was developing stress-related emotional and physical ailments because of his being detained by immigration. Tonight he could tuck her in, or read her a story, or just sit and be with her for the first time in weeks. 

I am incredibly proud of our staff who worked at break-neck speed to get all of the documents prepared. In all of our materials we indicate that we handle emergency cases and this is just another example of our staff pulling together to get a tough job done, and done well, in almost no time at all.
