Before immigration attorney Lizbeth Mateo accompanied her client, Edith Espinal, into U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement s office in Westerville, Ohio, on Feb. 18, she made a routine call to her assistant back in California.
Like her client, Mateo lacks legal documents to reside in the U.S., and she knew that either of them could be detained upon arrival a possibility that could affect her work on other cases. Espinal was scared preparing for the encounter, she told Law360 through an interpreter, but had faith in her attorney.

Supreme Court In No Rush To Weigh Trump Election Lawsuits By By
Matthew Santoni Law360 (January 11, 2021, 1:05 PM EST) The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday said it would not speed up appeals challenging the 2020 presidential election results in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, effectively ending bids by President Donald Trump and his supporters to undo those states results before President-elect Joe Biden s inauguration.
