Addressing Immigration in the State Courts

"This article presents the initial findings from an ongoing State Justice Institute (SJI) sponsored effort now being conducted by the Center for Public Policy Studies (CPPS) in cooperation with three learning site trial courts. The purposes of the project are to first identify the challenges and opportunities state courts need to address when dealing with immigration in the courts, and subsequently develop effective responses that can be used in trial courts and state court systems across the nation."
