In re: MELIA HOWIE a.k.a. Melia Marshall

IN REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS

MOTION

ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: Robert D. Kolken, Esquire

APPLICATION: Reinstatement of proceedings; termination

ORDER:

In a decision dated November 2, 2015, this Board ordered the proceedings in this case

administratively closed. Now, the respondent has filed a motion to reinstate and terminate these

removal proceedings as the respondent has been issued a Certificate of Citizenship.

Documentation has been provided to substantiate this claim. The Department of Homeland

Security ("DHS") has not filed an opposition to this motion. As the respondent is a United States

citizen, she is not subject to removal proceedings. Accordingly, the unopposed motion will be

granted and these removal proceedings are reinstated and terminated.
