Patricia J. Schofield, Evidence in Deportation Proceedings,
63 Texas L. Rev. 1537 (1984).
Abstract:
This note examines admission of evidence in deportation hearing.
Specifically, Schofield argues that the Federal Rules of
Evidence should be followed in deportation hearings to add
fairness and promote certainty with respect to issues of
admissibility of evidence. Schofield argues that adoption of
such rules in deportation proceedings would both expedite
procedures and reduce frivolous appeals.
