Dominican man arrested after immigration court hearing at Javits Federal Building
May 19, 2026 · New York, NY, Dominican Republic

A Dominican man was detained by plainclothes ICE officers immediately after an immigration hearing at the immigration court inside the Jacob K. Javits Federal Building in New York on June 6, 2025. This arrest occurred one day after a federal judge issued a ruling barring federal agents from routinely detaining people who appear for immigration court proceedings in New York City, finding that people should not have to risk arrest to exercise their legal right to pursue asylum claims or attend deportation hearings.
