1 min readShah Peerally Law Group

After a long fight for UNNJ student, a class action was finally filed. According to AILA:

A group of students filed a class action lawsuit in the U.S. District for the Eastern District of New York challenging the government’s determination that they committed visa fraud by enrolling at the University of Northern New Jersey (UNNJ). The plaintiffs are seeking declaratory and injunctive relief to require the government to provide the students with individualized proceedings in which they can challenge the government’s fraud determination, prevent the government from using their enrollment at UNNJ to deny any immigration benefits in future, remove any fraud determination from government computer systems, and reinstate the students to valid F-1 status. (Fang et al. v. Saldaña et al., 11/18/16)
