Niz-Chavez v. Garland
SCOTUS
593 U.S. 155 (2021)
2021
Holding
A single document must provide all required NTA information—including time and place—to trigger the stop-time rule; a later follow-up notice cannot cure a defective initial NTA for stop-time purposes.
Practitioner Note
Extended Pereira v. Sessions. Together these cases mean that any NTA without complete time/place information cannot trigger the stop-time rule.
