This proposed rule would amend the regulations of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) and the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) by establishing procedures for lawful permanent residents (LPRs) with certain criminal convictions arising from plea agreements reached prior to a verdict at trial to apply for relief from deportation or removal pursuant to former section 212(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. It also sets forth procedures and deadlines for filing special motions to seek such relief before an Immigration Judge or the Board of Immigration Appeals for LPRs currently in proceedings or under final orders of deportation or removal.
