DOJ rolls out case quotas for immigration judges.

From CNN:

Quote:

the director of the immigration courts informed judges they would now be evaluated on a set of metrics including the speed and volume of cases heard.

Quote:

In the memo, obtained by CNN and sent to all immigration judges on Friday, the Justice Department lays out specific measures of performance for judges, including completing at least 700 cases per year

These are not really "judges" under the judicial branch.

These are EOIR judges under the purview of the executive branch.

Re: DOJ rolls out case quotes for immigration judges.

The National Immigration Judges Association, whose recent collective bargaining agreement allows for performance metrics, strongly opposes the numerical targets and will explore options under federal labor law, said Dana Leigh Marks, a union spokeswoman.

“We believe the imposition of numerical performance metrics is completely, utterly contrary to judicial independence,” said Marks, who is also an immigration judge in San Francisco. “We believe assessing quality is fine, not quantity.”

Judges can argue that the nature of their cases justifies a lower completion rate, but Marks said keeping logs will add to their work burden and potentially create more backlog. She also said people may be more inclined to appeal decisions by arguing that the quotas denied them a fair hearing.”

Everyday is worse. Hope they can stop this..
