DOJ moves immigration court hearings back to in-person

Original: Changes to immigration court hearings; DOJ switches from virtual to in-person

The Department of Justice is switching immigration court hearings from virtual proceedings back to in-person appearances. The change affects how migrants and their attorneys attend removal proceedings, ending a practice kept in place since the pandemic. Observers are weighing the practical impact on immigrants who may have to travel long distances to appear before judges.

Why now: The policy shift reverses pandemic-era virtual hearings and directly affects migrants facing deportation proceedings.
