No. 2:11-cv-1914 DAD
FOURTH JOINT STIPULATION AND
ORDER RE: REQUEST TO HOLD
MATTER IN ABEYANCE.

14
15

This is an immigration case in which plaintiffs challenge the revocation of visa petitions filed

16

by plaintiff Audrey Casillas by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ (CIS) and seek an

17

order of declaratory relief that the visa petitions be approved. The parties previously stipulated to

18

hold the matter in abeyance pending an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals. As of the

19

time of this filing, the matter remains pending at the Board of Immigration Appeals.
Because of the likelihood that adjudication by the Board of Immigration Appeals will render

20
21

this action moot, the parties request that the case be held in abeyance until December 17, 2012,
and that all case deadlines be extended to sometime after that date.
