The Board of Immigration Appeals has denied a petition for reinstatement filed by an attorney indefinitely suspended from practice before the Board, the Immigration Courts, and DHS since 2011, holding that regaining good standing in one state does not satisfy the regulatory definition of "attorney" where the petitioner remains barred from practicing in a federal appellate court.
The Board held that the regulatory definition requires a petitioner to show she is not under any order restricting her practice of law in any jurisdiction, and that the petitioner's resignation from a circuit court's bar in lieu of disciplinary proceedings remained unaddressed regardless of her reinstatement before a state supreme court. The Board also found reinstatement independently unwarranted because the attorney had registered for an EOIR identification number and appeared in several immigration court cases while still under suspension.
