    Why are they expecting people to react to emails, anyway? If I got this in my email, I would assume it was just spam. A letter that comes by snail mail would get my attention, though.

    Are legal notices regularly sent by email now?

      It’s calculated. They want the email to get ignored so that you “commit a crime” by staying in the country, giving them a “legitimate” excuse to deport you.

        But I doubt that email can be considered sufficient notice in any court. In fact, now that it has been published, I wouldn’t be surprised if it starts getting spammed everywhere just because.

          Immigration courts have far less rights, even to citizens, it takes ages to appeal past it to a real court

            The president claimed it would be impossible to extend due process rights — as required under the Fifth Amendment — to all of the immigrants he wants to deport.

            “We cannot give everyone a trial, because to do so would take, without exaggeration, 200 years,” he wrote. “We would need hundreds of thousands of trials for the hundreds of thousands of Illegals we are sending out of the Country. Such a thing is not possible to do. What a ridiculous situation we are in.” Mango Mussolini

          They’ll have you out of the country before you can even contact a lawyer or your family, let alone have a court hearing. Their legal justification is just to provide plausible deniability if it ever makes it to the news cycle.
