The Trump administration is moving to fast-track cases in immigration court by allowing judges to drop “legally deficient asylum cases without a hearing.”

The change in policy was laid out in an April 11 memo sent to staff at the Executive Office for Immigration Review, a part of the Justice Department that decides who can be deported from the U.S.

The directive could result in immigration judges determining someone is not eligible for asylum without a hearing, based solely on what is filed on a lengthy and complex asylum request form.

The memo comes as the Trump administration is seeking to arrest and deport more people without permanent legal status in the U.S. But the immigration court system has faced a growing backlog of cases, and experts argue it has gone underfunded and under-resourced for years.
