Justice Department Rolls Out Quotas For Immigration Judges
To get a "satisfactory" rating on their performance evaluations, judges will be required to clear at least 700 cases a year. Some judges warn quotas could erode due process for immigrants.
The Department of Justice is setting quotas for immigration judges â part of a broader effort to speed up deportations and reduce a massive backlog of immigration cases.
The new quotas are laid out in a memo that was sent to immigration judges across the country on Friday.
