United States Sixth Circuit
SAD v. IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERV., 99-4283
The stop-time rule's requirement of seven years continuous physical presence prior to removal proceedings does not violate the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause and is a legitimate policy choice to remove incentives to delay deportation or removal proceedings once they have begun.
