In August 2009, Jennifer Archer successfully litigated a defensive asylum claim in the Boston Immigration Court (Matter of [NAME REDACTED]). At issue in the case was whether Attorney Archer’s Rwandan client was entitled to asylum based upon prior persecution by the Rwandan Patriotic Front. Following a full day of trial, the Immigration Court (Gagnon, P.) rendered an opinion from the bench, granting asylum to Attorney Archer’s client.
