My client was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in one of the local detention centers in Orange County. He has a conviction for assault (California Penal Code Section 245). He has a 2-year green card with an I-751 pending. He is married to a U.S. Citizen and has 3 U.S. born children. He has a job. His employer wrote a letter that he is such a terrific worker that he will have his job back once he is out of detention. ICE refused to grant bond.

I prepared a motion substantiating all of the above and this morning I appeared in Los Angeles Immigration Court. His wife, 3 children, and three other relatives attended the court hearing. My client appeared by video.

The Immigration Judge granted bond in the amount of $2,000.00.
