Are you or is someone you have advised at risk of deportation? Two recognized experts show what options there are to prevent this. Christine Graebsch and Martin von Borstel point out options for action in this difficult situation on the basis of a detailed discussion of the legal bases of residence / asylum law and the proposed legal protection options. Today's residence and asylum law is more complex than ever and those affected and counselors can hardly keep up with all new developments. There are various reasons why third-country nationals, but also EU citizens, can be threatened with deportation. In order to be able to legally prevent deportation, it is necessary to deal with their legal requirements and the available legal protection options. Both ordinary and extraordinary legal remedies such as a constitutional complaint or a complaint to the European Court of Human Rights come into consideration. Both the situation of people who are at liberty and those of people who are in custody or detention pending deportation must be taken into account. This book gives those affected and counselors an overview of the legal basis of the termination of residence and possible legal remedies.
