Professional Conduct for Practitioners - Rules and Procedures, and Representation and Appearances (US Executive Office for Immigration Review Regulation) (EOIR) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Professional Conduct for Practitioners - Rules and Procedures, and Representation and Appearances (US Executive Office for Immigration Review Regulation) (EOIR) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This final rule adopts, in part, the proposed changes to the rules and procedures concerning the standards of representation and professional conduct for practitioners who appear before the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), which includes the immigration judges and the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board). It also clarifies who is authorized to represent and appear on behalf of individuals in proceedings before the Board and the immigration judges. Current regulations set forth who may represent individuals in proceedings before EOIR and also set forth the rules and procedures for imposing disciplinary sanctions against practitioners who engage in criminal, unethical, or unprofessional conduct, or in frivolous behavior before EOIR. The final rule increases the number of grounds for discipline, improves the clarity and uniformity of the existing rules, and incorporates miscellaneous technical and procedural changes. The changes herein are based upon the Attorney General's initiative for improving the adjudicatory processes for the immigration judges and the Board, as well as EOIR's operational experience in administering the disciplinary program since the current process was established in 2000.
