A Detainer Is Not A Final Order Of Removal
Are you the loved one of an undocumented inmate in federal prison?
In a few different videos on federal prison tips TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, you may have heard us talking about Jesus Sanchez Ledezma.
Jesus was an inmate at the federal prison in Yazoo, Mississippi. He was being denied FSA credit because he had a detainer, but not a final order of removal. The detainer said that he was subject to a final order of removal, but was not, in fact, the final order of removal necessary to deny his credit.
He enlisted the help of FederalPrisonTips.com, and we helped him prepare a 2241 motion that he brought to Carlton Reeves’s courtroom in the Southern District of Mississippi.
This judge happens to be the chief of the United States Sentencing Commission.
In those court proceedings, it was agreed that a detainer is not a final order of removal.
At FederalPrisonTips.com, we’ve been able to use that precedent that we contributed in setting to help other undocumented inmates get their FSA credit and then return to their country of origin.
So, what happened to Sanchez Ledezma?
Well, they adjusted his time in accordance with the First Step Act, and then when it was time to go, ICE picked him up and took him back to his country of origin.
