S.F. immigration court to close at year’s end, sources say By Margaret Kadifa and Mariana Garcia |
|
There were 21 judges at San Francisco’s two immigration court locations — with the vast majority at Montgomery Street — in early spring 2025. There will be just four left by the end of January 2026; the Trump administration fired 13 of those judges, and another four were scheduled to retire by the end of the month. There are over 120,000 pending cases in San Francisco’s immigration court backlog, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. |
