Hasna Yildiz v. United States of America, et al.

Case Number: 3:23-cv-11114

Plaintiff's Attorney: Enes Hajdarpasic and Anthony Drago

Defendant's Attorney: mark Santer

Description: Springfield, Massachusetts immigration law lawyer represented Plaintiff seeking a writ of mandamus.

"A writ of mandamus is a court order that commands a government official to perform a specific act. In immigration cases, a writ of mandamus can be used to compel a government official to make a decision on an immigration application or petition.

To obtain a writ of mandamus in an immigration case, the petitioner must show that the government official has a clear duty to act, that the petitioner has a right to the action, and that the petitioner will suffer irreparable harm if the action is not taken.

Here are some examples of cases where a writ of mandamus may be used in immigration cases:

A petitioner who has applied for asylum and has been waiting for a decision for an unreasonable amount of time may file a writ of mandamus to compel the government to make a decision on their application.
A petitioner who has been denied a green card may file a writ of mandamus to compel the government to reconsider their decision.
A petitioner who has been placed in removal proceedings may file a writ of mandamus to compel the government to release them from detention.

Writs of mandamus are powerful tools that can be used to protect the rights of immigrants. However, they are also complex and should only be filed with the assistance of an attorney.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind about writs of mandamus in immigration cases:

Writs of mandamus are typically filed in federal court.
The petitioner must have exhausted all other administrative remedies before filing a writ of mandamus.
The petitioner must file the writ of mandamus within a reasonable amount of time after the government official's failure to act.
The petitioner must be able to show that they will suffer irreparable harm if the writ of mandamus is not granted.

If you are considering filing a writ of mandamus in an immigration case, you should speak with an attorney to discuss your case and your options."
