Immigration’S Prejudice Problem, S. Ellie Norton Mar 2026

Immigration’S Prejudice Problem, S. Ellie Norton

Nevada Law Journal

With immigration enforcement sharply rising, noncitizens increasingly face deportation with few constitutional protections. Yet many remain at least entitled to a fundamentally fair hearing before an immigration court. Even before the current administration, however, immigration courts had become notorious for systematically violating noncitizens’ due process rights. And while other scholars have suggested broadscale reforms to tackle this problem, statutory and regulatory change has become all but unachievable. This Article offers a new and timely solution: reforming the framework for direct review of immigration court due process violations. In most jurisdictions, noncitizens asserting these violations must prove on appeal not only …

The Veil That Covered France's Eye: The Right To Freedom Of Religion And Equal Treatment In Immigration And Naturalization Proceedings, Kendal Davis Jan 2010

The Veil That Covered France's Eye: The Right To Freedom Of Religion And Equal Treatment In Immigration And Naturalization Proceedings, Kendal Davis

Nevada Law Journal

In June 2008, France’s highest administrative court upheld a decision to deny citizenship to a Muslim woman because, essentially, she was ‘not French enough.’ This decision incited both praise and outrage in the international human rights arena regarding considerations such as the right to freedom of religion, gender equality, and citizenship.

Furthermore, despite judicial deference and flexibility to …
