Born in Mexico Hugo Monsalvo Velázquez entered the United States unlawfully as a teenager about 20 years ago. Since then he has made his life in Colorado. There he attended high school some college and met and married his wife. The couple has an 11-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter both U. S. citizens. In 2011 the federal government initiated proceedings to remove Mr. Monsalvo from the country. . . . Mr. Monsalvo responded by appealing to the Board of Immigration Appeals. By regulation that appeal stayed the immigration judge’s order. On October 12 2021 the Board issued its own decision. In it the Board rejected Mr. Monsalvo’s argument that he would face persecution in Mexico and gave him a (new) period of “60 days to voluntarily depart” the United States “the maximum period allowed by” §1229c(b)(2).
