Custody Procedures

This rule amends the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) regulations on the period of time after an alien's arrest within which the Service must make a determination whether the alien will be continued in custody or released on bond or recognizance and whether to issue a notice to appear and warrant of arrest. This rule provides that unless voluntary departure has been granted, the Service must make such determinations within 48 hours of arrest, except in the event of emergency or other extraordinary circumstance in which case the Service must make such determinations within an additional reasonable period of time.
