His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Tenant groups are urging other localities to enact similar measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"eviction, housing\" label=\"More Related Stories.\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lacking reliable, timely eviction data, neither policymakers nor renters groups know precisely how many more evictions are occurring ahead of the law taking effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Landlord groups and some supporters of the law argue that the vast majority of landlords aren’t trying to evade it, and that the industry shouldn’t be demonized for the rogue actions of what they say are a few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I wish we could wave a magic wand when it comes to what owners are doing now, I think we have seen some attorneys outside of (our organization) give advice about terminating tenancies to avoid the application of (the law),” said Debra Carlton, vice president of public affairs for the California Apartment Association. “And we have commented that this is unconscionable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But others in the industry expect an uptick in evictions before January 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It somewhat reminds me of the Obama administration and everything they were trying to do to restrict guns,” said Steve Hrdlicka, a lawyer who specializes in evictions and debt collection in the Central Valley. “And people who would not have normally thought about buying a weapon thought this right is being taken away from me — and gun sales skyrocketed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Landlords Fear More Cumbersome Evictions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In California now, landlords can evict tenants at the end of their lease without specifying any reason, as long as they give advance notice of 60 days, or 30 days if the tenant has lived there less than a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Come January, landlords can legally remove renters from their property only if they have a “just cause” — such as if renters violate the terms of a lease, fail to pay rent or cause a nuisance to neighbors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Canal Farm Gardens, every unit in the apartment complex is undergoing a major renovation, which qualifies as a circumstance under which even the new rules would allow “no-fault” evictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re doing a renovation, it’s very costly,’ said Suzie Lucero, the apartment manager on the property for 25 years. “I think they’re worth the price they’re going for.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a key provision in the new law forces landlords to provide one month’s worth of rent as relocation help to those displaced by renovations or other “no-fault” evictions, such as when a landlord moves in with a family member. That’s a major expenditure when evicting 30-plus units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Tran, a lawyer for Central California Legal Services, said no tenant that she’s been in contact with had been offered relocation assistance or had their last month of rent waived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenant groups contend that many landlords are simply profit-maximizing: evicting tenants who are paying rents below what the market can bear while they still can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hrdlicka, the Central Valley landlord lawyer, said that while he’s heard some stories of landlords pursuing that strategy, he doesn’t believe the practice is widespread. But he acknowledged that he has advised some clients to initiate evictions now, before they might have to prove a tenant’s bad behavior in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The bottom line is that a very effective tool is being taken away from (landlords),” said Hrdlicka, who cautioned that his clients can no longer afford to take a wait-and-see approach with problematic tenants who could cause trouble down the road. “Landlords in my experience do not serve terminations for no reason. There’s always a reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Could Evictions Have Been Avoided?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Popp, the eviction defense attorney in Los Angeles, praised state lawmakers for passing the new law, which advocates call the most significant statewide tenant-protection legislation in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she expressed frustration that more wasn’t done to stop what she says was eminently foreseeable: some landlords would try to get ahead of the law any way they could.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They should have just had this go into effect immediately, and then we wouldn’t have these emergency problems,” said Popp. “Did the state Legislature make this bill strong enough? Absolutely not. Did we need this bill? Absolutely yes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11782913\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11782913\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Canal Farm Gardens is a 59-unit apartment complex in Los Banos. Until two months ago, renters paid $750 per month for a two-bedroom apartment, they now pay $850. Renovated units will rent for nearly $1300 per month, pricing out many of the current tenants. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman David Chiu, theSan Francisco Democrat who was the bill’s lead author, said having the bill take effect immediately was neither politically nor practically realistic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Urgency measures” — state laws that go into effect as soon as the governor signs them — require a two-thirds vote in California’s Legislature. The Assembly approved Chiu’s bill with 48 votes, five shy of that supermajority threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This behavior of predatory no-fault evictions has been happening for decades with no transparency,” said Chiu. “And that’s exactly why we did this bill, and come January 1st, 8 million Californians will no longer be exploited in this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new law does aim to block landlords from raising rents beyond the new cap before the new law takes effect: Landlords can still hike rents as much as they please before the new year, but if they exceed the cap, they’ll just have to reset them back to March 2019 levels once the new law kicks in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t legislate away every bad actor,” said Chiu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some landlord groups argue that the Legislature could have deterred some of the behavior happening now if it the new law allowed “banking” — allowing them to raise rents above the allowable annual increase if they didn’t raise them to the full cap the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Chiu’s office is counting down the days until November 2 — the last day it says landlords could legally issue 60-day eviction notices unaffected by the new law’s constraints.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A boon to 2020 rent control initiative?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Other cities may join Los Angeles in passing temporary eviction freezes, but renters shouldn’t look to the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if the Newsom administration was planning any statewide emergency action to halt evictions, a spokesman for the governor said in an email:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kinds of unfair evictions are exactly why California passes AB 1482 and the very situations it will protect against. Tenants have rights and access to legal services. They should contact local legal aid clinics if they believe they are being illegally or unfairly targeted or evicted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the rent-cap/just-eviction measure passed at all was the threat of a looming 2020 ballot initiative that would allow cities to impose tighter rent controls than what the new state law allows. The California Apartment Association, the largest interest group for major landlords in the Capitol, withdrew opposition to the bill at least partly so it could argue the 2020 initiative was no longer necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, amid reports of an eviction rush, the sponsor of that initiative said it’s already garnered more than the 700,000 signatures needed to place it on the November 2020 ballot — and that the 74,000 signatures collected last week marked a more than 60% increase over the previous week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Weinstein, president of the Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation was surprised the new law was proved so quickly it was not a solution to housing affordability. The foundation’s affiliated housing group Housing is a Human Right opposed the law, arguing a 5%-plus-inflation cap was too weak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Carlton, lobbyist for the California Apartment Association, says she doesn’t think anecdotal reports of eviction will matter: A previous version of that initiative, also sponsored by Weinstein, lost by nearly 20 points last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got to find a better solution,” said Carlton. “It can’t just be about pointing the finger at these landlords, it’s got to be about finding the market balance with new construction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the Canal Farm Gardens in Los Banos, apartment manager Lucero says she’s seen a steady stream of applicants for the newly renovated apartments, with many prospective renters from the Bay Area expressing interest in units going for $1,295 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Banos is about 80 miles southeast of San Jose, where the median two-bedroom \u003ca href=\"https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/rental-price-data/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rents for nearly $2,700\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The apartment complex owners did allow intake workers from various safety net agencies to spend a day trying to help relocate residents, many of whom are farmworkers or have other low-wage jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sargeez Teimoorshahi, program director at the social services nonprofit Turning Point, said that despite efforts to connect evicted residents with county funds for security deposits and extended motel stays, he expects some will be unable to find stable homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unfortunately without available affordable housing, that will lead to some families becoming homeless,” said Teimoorshahi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

That’s a major expenditure when evicting 30-plus units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Tran, a lawyer for Central California Legal Services, said no tenant that she’s been in contact with had been offered relocation assistance or had their last month of rent waived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenant groups contend that many landlords are simply profit-maximizing: evicting tenants who are paying rents below what the market can bear while they still can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hrdlicka, the Central Valley landlord lawyer, said that while he’s heard some stories of landlords pursuing that strategy, he doesn’t believe the practice is widespread. But he acknowledged that he has advised some clients to initiate evictions now, before they might have to prove a tenant’s bad behavior in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The bottom line is that a very effective tool is being taken away from (landlords),” said Hrdlicka, who cautioned that his clients can no longer afford to take a wait-and-see approach with problematic tenants who could cause trouble down the road. “Landlords in my experience do not serve terminations for no reason. There’s always a reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Could Evictions Have Been Avoided?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Popp, the eviction defense attorney in Los Angeles, praised state lawmakers for passing the new law, which advocates call the most significant statewide tenant-protection legislation in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she expressed frustration that more wasn’t done to stop what she says was eminently foreseeable: some landlords would try to get ahead of the law any way they could.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They should have just had this go into effect immediately, and then we wouldn’t have these emergency problems,” said Popp. “Did the state Legislature make this bill strong enough? Absolutely not. Did we need this bill? Absolutely yes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11782913\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11782913\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Canal Farm Gardens is a 59-unit apartment complex in Los Banos. Until two months ago, renters paid $750 per month for a two-bedroom apartment, they now pay $850. Renovated units will rent for nearly $1300 per month, pricing out many of the current tenants. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman David Chiu, theSan Francisco Democrat who was the bill’s lead author, said having the bill take effect immediately was neither politically nor practically realistic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Urgency measures” — state laws that go into effect as soon as the governor signs them — require a two-thirds vote in California’s Legislature. The Assembly approved Chiu’s bill with 48 votes, five shy of that supermajority threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This behavior of predatory no-fault evictions has been happening for decades with no transparency,” said Chiu. “And that’s exactly why we did this bill, and come January 1st, 8 million Californians will no longer be exploited in this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new law does aim to block landlords from raising rents beyond the new cap before the new law takes effect: Landlords can still hike rents as much as they please before the new year, but if they exceed the cap, they’ll just have to reset them back to March 2019 levels once the new law kicks in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t legislate away every bad actor,” said Chiu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some landlord groups argue that the Legislature could have deterred some of the behavior happening now if it the new law allowed “banking” — allowing them to raise rents above the allowable annual increase if they didn’t raise them to the full cap the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Chiu’s office is counting down the days until November 2 — the last day it says landlords could legally issue 60-day eviction notices unaffected by the new law’s constraints.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A boon to 2020 rent control initiative?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Other cities may join Los Angeles in passing temporary eviction freezes, but renters shouldn’t look to the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if the Newsom administration was planning any statewide emergency action to halt evictions, a spokesman for the governor said in an email:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kinds of unfair evictions are exactly why California passes AB 1482 and the very situations it will protect against. Tenants have rights and access to legal services. They should contact local legal aid clinics if they believe they are being illegally or unfairly targeted or evicted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the rent-cap/just-eviction measure passed at all was the threat of a looming 2020 ballot initiative that would allow cities to impose tighter rent controls than what the new state law allows. The California Apartment Association, the largest interest group for major landlords in the Capitol, withdrew opposition to the bill at least partly so it could argue the 2020 initiative was no longer necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, amid reports of an eviction rush, the sponsor of that initiative said it’s already garnered more than the 700,000 signatures needed to place it on the November 2020 ballot — and that the 74,000 signatures collected last week marked a more than 60% increase over the previous week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Weinstein, president of the Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation was surprised the new law was proved so quickly it was not a solution to housing affordability. The foundation’s affiliated housing group Housing is a Human Right opposed the law, arguing a 5%-plus-inflation cap was too weak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Carlton, lobbyist for the California Apartment Association, says she doesn’t think anecdotal reports of eviction will matter: A previous version of that initiative, also sponsored by Weinstein, lost by nearly 20 points last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Margaret Rykowski, the Public Health Department’s chief integrity officer and director of compliance and privacy affairs, is now acting CEO.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Williams said the hospital is now in full compliance with state and federal regulations. The CDHP’s report this summer found the hospital out of compliance by failing to protect the privacy rights of patients, to ensure they are free of chemical restraints and to protect them from verbal, physical and mental abuse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yee said hospital officials will need to win back the trust of the city’s residents, “who cannot be asked to entrust the care of their loved ones to any entity that cannot prove that they have an effective system that guarantees the safety and well-being of every single patient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Matthew Green contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Editor's note: This story has been edited to correct conflicting information provided by the Department of Public Health about the number of patient abuse cases.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Fresno County Superior Court Judge Jane A. Cardoza ruled the case will go to trial on all charges.

Defense attorney Ralph Torres said the alleged sexual abuse never happened and he thought they would prevail at trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This type of healing massage happens all over Latin America, Mexico and in the United States. Nothing unusual about that,\" he said after Cardoza's ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The alleged victims described visiting Castañeda’s office to receive healing for physical ailments and personal issues such as drug or alcohol abuse, separation from a spouse, or the death of a child. Most said they were referred by other congregants who claimed the priest possessed spiritual gifts and the ability to heal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the eight men and one woman who testified, Castañeda told them that they had been cursed by previous wives or girlfriends, or were possessed by a demon and needed spiritual healing. (The witnesses were named in court, but KQED is not disclosing their identities because they are alleged victims of sexual abuse.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The witnesses said Castañeda instructed them to strip down to their underwear, lay on a bench or massage table, and receive “healing” or “prayer” massages that they described as very painful. One man reported he had visible bruises for days after the massages. Prosecutor Kelly Smith presented photos showing the man’s neck with red marks, which the witness said a family member took after one of the prayer massages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The massages often ended in the priest touching parishioners’ genitals, the witnesses testified. In some cases, they described a grazing that could have been accidental. In others, they said, Castañeda grabbed their penis or testicles through their underwear or attempted to masturbate them. Sometimes the priest claimed to have removed a black or yellow substance from their penis, the men said. The woman said Castañeda touched her breasts while making the sign of the cross on her chest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11782043\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11782043\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/10232019_Castaneda3_crop-qut-800x581.jpg\" alt=\"Jesús Antonio Castañeda Serna preaches to parishioners of his new church, Iglesia del Espíritu Santo, or Holy Spirit Church.

Most said they were referred by other congregants who claimed the priest possessed spiritual gifts and the ability to heal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the eight men and one woman who testified, Castañeda told them that they had been cursed by previous wives or girlfriends, or were possessed by a demon and needed spiritual healing. (The witnesses were named in court, but KQED is not disclosing their identities because they are alleged victims of sexual abuse.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The witnesses said Castañeda instructed them to strip down to their underwear, lay on a bench or massage table, and receive “healing” or “prayer” massages that they described as very painful. One man reported he had visible bruises for days after the massages. Prosecutor Kelly Smith presented photos showing the man’s neck with red marks, which the witness said a family member took after one of the prayer massages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The massages often ended in the priest touching parishioners’ genitals, the witnesses testified. In some cases, they described a grazing that could have been accidental. In others, they said, Castañeda grabbed their penis or testicles through their underwear or attempted to masturbate them. Sometimes the priest claimed to have removed a black or yellow substance from their penis, the men said.

Yes or no?” asked Hawkins, a Clinton appointee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Detention would not be indefinite, Bingham responded, because it would last only until an immigration judge decides if the government can deport that individual.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bingham said immigrants who entered the country illegally — and passed initial interviews establishing a “credible fear” of persecution or torture — are entitled only to rights expressly given to them by Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a sliding scale of due process,” she said. “And the Supreme Court has said on multiple occasions that due process is a flexible concept that takes into account all of the different varying circumstances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Coverage\" tag=\"asylum\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that immigration laws do not give detained immigrants the right to periodic bond hearings. But the justices also instructed lower courts to examine whether the U.S. Constitution requires such hearings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, U.S. Attorney General William Barr, whose purview includes immigration courts, \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/eoir/file/1154747/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued the order\u003c/a> saying asylum-seekers who entered unlawfully are no longer eligible for release on bond, despite the fact that the practice has been around for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is one of several efforts by the Trump administration to dramatically restrict humanitarian protections, arguing that migrants are abusing the U.S. asylum system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Barr’s order, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement can still decide to release asylum applicants. But plaintiff attorneys argue that if the policy takes effect, detainees would not have a fair shot at freedom because ICE is biased toward detaining people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In criminal cases, defendants generally have the right to ask a judge to set them free while their cases are decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In July, a federal judge in Seattle issued a nationwide halt to Barr’s order. U.S. District Judge Marsha J. Pechman also said the government must provide bond hearings within seven days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pechman’s ruling provides critical protections that allow migrants seeking refuge in the U.S. to have a “genuine opportunity” to make their case for asylum, plaintiffs’ attorney Matt Adams told the 9th circuit panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have thousands of our class members who will not only have been deprived of their liberty for months and perhaps years,” said Adams, legal director at the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project. “But many will then have been deprived of the opportunity to obtain legal representation, to gather the evidence necessary to marshal their case, to present their case before the court.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only one out of 10 asylum-seekers win their case without legal representation, \u003ca href=\"https://trac.syr.edu/immigration/reports/491/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to\u003c/a> researchers at Syracuse University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Government attorney Bingham cautioned the judges against requiring hearings within seven days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By requiring the bond hearings to happen so quickly with the government bearing the burden of proof, it incentivizes aliens to enter the United States illegally because they would then be entitled to greater process than if they properly reported to a port of entry,” said Bingham, referring to official border crossings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and other top administration officials argue that many asylum-seekers skip court hearings and disappear into the country after they are released from detention. But that’s not supported by several studies, including a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11756583/report-vast-majority-of-asylum-seeking-families-in-s-f-immigration-court-attend-all-hearings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent analysis\u003c/a> that found that close to 98% of families applying for asylum in San Francisco’s immigration court showed up to every hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About half of asylum-seekers who go before a judge and request release are granted bond while their case is decided, Adams told the panel of judges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the face of \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/national-media-release/claims-credible-fear-increase-fiscal-year-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">growing numbers\u003c/a> of people claiming asylum, the Trump administration has moved aggressively to eliminate what officials call “loopholes” they say attract migrants from Central America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration advocates have challenged many of those policies — including one that denies asylum to people who fail to seek protection in a country they cross en route to the U.S., and another that forces asylum-seekers to remain in Mexico while an immigration judge decides their case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen from this administration an assault on asylum,” said Michael Tan, a senior staff attorney with the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project. “The sad reality — that this administration is all too aware of — is that a lot of people just give up, they’d rather risk their life and safety than stay locked up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three-judge panel is expected to issue its ruling soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Yes or no?” asked Hawkins, a Clinton appointee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Detention would not be indefinite, Bingham responded, because it would last only until an immigration judge decides if the government can deport that individual.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bingham said immigrants who entered the country illegally — and passed initial interviews establishing a “credible fear” of persecution or torture — are entitled only to rights expressly given to them by Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a sliding scale of due process,” she said. “And the Supreme Court has said on multiple occasions that due process is a flexible concept that takes into account all of the different varying circumstances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But the justices also instructed lower courts to examine whether the U.S. Constitution requires such hearings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, U.S. Attorney General William Barr, whose purview includes immigration courts, \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/eoir/file/1154747/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued the order\u003c/a> saying asylum-seekers who entered unlawfully are no longer eligible for release on bond, despite the fact that the practice has been around for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is one of several efforts by the Trump administration to dramatically restrict humanitarian protections, arguing that migrants are abusing the U.S. asylum system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Barr’s order, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement can still decide to release asylum applicants. But plaintiff attorneys argue that if the policy takes effect, detainees would not have a fair shot at freedom because ICE is biased toward detaining people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In criminal cases, defendants generally have the right to ask a judge to set them free while their cases are decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In July, a federal judge in Seattle issued a nationwide halt to Barr’s order. U.S. District Judge Marsha J. Pechman also said the government must provide bond hearings within seven days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pechman’s ruling provides critical protections that allow migrants seeking refuge in the U.S. to have a “genuine opportunity” to make their case for asylum, plaintiffs’ attorney Matt Adams told the 9th circuit panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have thousands of our class members who will not only have been deprived of their liberty for months and perhaps years,” said Adams, legal director at the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project. “But many will then have been deprived of the opportunity to obtain legal representation, to gather the evidence necessary to marshal their case, to present their case before the court.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But that’s not supported by several studies, including a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11756583/report-vast-majority-of-asylum-seeking-families-in-s-f-immigration-court-attend-all-hearings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent analysis\u003c/a> that found that close to 98% of families applying for asylum in San Francisco’s immigration court showed up to every hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About half of asylum-seekers who go before a judge and request release are granted bond while their case is decided, Adams told the panel of judges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the face of \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/national-media-release/claims-credible-fear-increase-fiscal-year-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">growing numbers\u003c/a> of people claiming asylum, the Trump administration has moved aggressively to eliminate what officials call “loopholes” they say attract migrants from Central America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration advocates have challenged many of those policies — including one that denies asylum to people who fail to seek protection in a country they cross en route to the U.S., and another that forces asylum-seekers to remain in Mexico while an immigration judge decides their case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen from this administration an assault on asylum,” said Michael Tan, a senior staff attorney with the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project. “The sad reality — that this administration is all too aware of — is that a lot of people just give up, they’d rather risk their life and safety than stay locked up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three-judge panel is expected to issue its ruling soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
