Matthew Borowski Admitted to United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Buffalo, New York based immigration lawyer Matthew Borowski was admitted to practice in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on January 25, 2019. The San Francisco, California based federal appeals court exercises jurisdiction over Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Washington State, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. The Ninth Circuit is by far the largest of the thirteen courts of appeals, with 29 active judgeships.

This admission allows Matthew Borowski to represent clients for Petitions for Review of administrative agency decisions, most notably appeals of Board of Immigration Appeals decisions in cases that arose within the Ninth Circuit's area of jurisdiction. Mr. Borowski has already filed appeals of decisions in two cases that arose at the Adelanto Immigration Court in Adelanto, California, which is a detained immigration court situated within a privately owned immigration detention facility (owned by GEO Group).

Matthew has already been licensed to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit since January 2015. The Second Circuit and the Ninth Circuit together exercise jurisdiction over portions of the United States with a population of over 85 million.
