Garland announced a new Recent Arrivals (RA) Docket process to more expeditiously resolve immigration cases of certain noncitizen single adults who attempt to cross irregularly between ports of entry at the Southwest border.

The Justice Department also submitted to the Federal Register a final rule to promote efficient case and docket management in immigration proceedings."
