http://dailycaller.com/2018/04/02/justice-department-illegal-immigrants/The Justice Department (DOJ) is going to start evaluating immigration judges based on how quickly they are able to close cases, The Wall Street Journal reported.
DOJ officials laid out the new rules in an email to immigration judges March 30, The Journal reported. Under the new rules, immigration judges will be required to complete at least 700 cases per year and have no more than 15 percent of their decisions sent back by a higher court.
Some judges have completed fewer than 700 cases a year over the past half decade, while others have closed over 1,500.
