Ruperto Vicens Marquez, a 38-year-old restaurant owner and father of three from Mexico, has been held at Newark's Delaney Hall Detention Facility since his October 19 arrest despite having work authorization valid until 2029. ICE says an immigration judge issued him a final removal order in July, a claim his attorney and the Atlantic Highlands mayor dispute. A judge has granted him a bond hearing within seven days, and more than 200 community letters have been submitted on his behalf. Vicens Marquez co-owns Emilio's Kitchen with his brother Emilio, after the two worked together for seven years at another local restaurant, Copper Canyon.
