Immigration Practice and Procedure in Family Proceedings

In the UK, there is an increasing trend encountered in family law - particularly in public law children proceedings - in which immigration issues assume importance and require clarification. This book concentrates on UK immigration procedures, law, and rules relevant to family proceedings, and it includes coverage of key topics, such as: the interface between family and immigration law * entry clearance * leave to remain in the UK * removal and deportation * family reunion under the immigration rules * human rights * asylum * human trafficking * detention and bail * rights to reside as an EU and EEA national. The Appendix contains key statutory provisions, regulations, and guidance. Immigration Practice and Procedure in Family Proceedings is an indispensable legal guide to this area for family law practitioners, immigration judges, and local authorities.
