A permanent resident, from Jamaica, as a result of a history of mental illness, she committed a series of minor criminal offences. Canada Border Services Agency issued a deportation order. Over a series of hearings spanning a decade, we defended her at the IAD, during which time she was issued and breached several stay orders. Finally, we convinced the IAD to allow her appeal despite the ongoing criminality because of the nature of her illness and the risk to her in Jamaica. She was allowed to remain in Canada.
