Subject: Illinois burglary
More good news from the Seventh Circuit – generic Illinois burglary is not an aggravated felony nor a turpitude offense!
Parzych v. Garland, __ F.3d __ (7th Cir. June 28, 2021)
If you congratulate anyone, you might include Hena Mansori, now at Cook County PD office, who represented Chester for years before leaving NIJC (and Diana Rashid handled it after Hena left). It’s not fair that us appellate folks get all the glory.

Thanks, Chuck. And, congrats to Hena Mansori, Diana Rashid, and you on another great victory!
Unrepresented individuals appearing before non-expert judges “supervised” by a BIA tilted in favor of DHS enforcement is not due process! Yet, that’s what happens every day in Immigration Courts.
Too many of these “courts” are “embedded” in the DHS “New American Gulag,” an inherently coercive environment that makes mincemeat out of fundamental fairness and mocks due process.
Tell AG Garland you’ve had enough of this scofflaw farce! Demand progressive changes starting with a new BIA with progressive expert judges, merit-based judicial selections, universal representation, and an end to Gulag courts and overused televideo “adjudication centers” that dehumanize and mechanize “justice” in a totally improper manner!
🇺🇸Due Process Forever!
