United States Third Circuit


BEJAR v. ASHCROFT, 02-1897

The INA does not provide for an automatic stay of removal during this 30-day appeal period, during which she could appeal the INS's denial of her motion to reopen, and as plaintiff failed to request such a stay, the INS acted lawfully in removing her before the period lapsed.
