This is an immigration case currently held in abeyance while plaintiff is in removal
proceedings. The parties report that removal proceedings remain ongoing. Plaintiff’s next
hearing date in immigration court is March 15, 2016. Because this Court’s jurisdiction to
consider the merits of plaintiff’s naturalization application remains dependent on the outcome of

22

the removal proceedings, the parties stipulate to a continuance of the abeyance period, until April

23

15, 2016, at which time the parties will file a further status report. De Lara Bellajaro v.
