Over 63,000 immigration cases were stopped in FY2022 due to alleged errors by border patrol agents. The claim states the agents did not file Notice to Appear (NTA) papers with the immigration court, as required. The finding, from Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), found 63,586 pending immigration cases were tossed as some Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents failed to file the appropriate paperwork. TRAC states the information was gathered through a series of Freedom of Information Act requests.
