The Supreme Court case Velazquez v. Garland. The central issue is the interpretation of a 60-day deadline for voluntary departure in immigration law, specifically whether this deadline should be extended if it falls on a weekend or holiday. The petitioner argues for an extension based on established legal principles and regulations, while the respondent contends the deadline is inflexible. A significant portion of the argument also focuses on the Supreme Court's jurisdiction to hear the case, with the respondent arguing it lacks jurisdiction because the issue does not directly impact the final order of removal. The justices extensively questioned both sides on both the merits and the jurisdictional issues.
