pullover,no criminal background? My friend came from india as a visitor and changed into a valid F1 student visa from 2006 to 2008, he is currently out of status,due to extreme hardship and has a lawyer working on his case.
Last friday he was coming from San Diego to LA, He was a passanger in the car, please note he wasn't driving the car at all.The Border patrol made a random stop, Infact No traffic violation was made at all.They searched everyone in the car including my friend and found his Indian passport with an expired visa.
They detained him and ever since hes in the border patrol facility with no access, I know that we can only do something when he is moved to the immigration and customs enforcement(ICE) but they aren't taking him to the ICE,because of non availability of bed space.
Can anyone has the correct information about how long can they keep him at the border patrol and when do they really transfer people to ICE for deporatation proceedings.And if there is something we can do to make sure that the border patrol does have to transfer him to ICE for his proceedings, so our lawyer can file for bond.
