It's Day 63

It's been 63 days since Jose was arrested and this is where we are now:  no where.  He is still in Tri County Detention Center down state, approximately 6 hours away from home.  Mr. Big B (Jose Criminal Attorney) has not gotten back to me yet about vacating Jose's old case from 2005.  I'm going to see Mr. Little B. (Joses immigration attorney) this Saturday to officially hire him.  I will be paying half of the retainer for his services. So far Jose has not been assigned a court date and that is a good thing.  The longer it takes the more time Mr. Big B. has to figure out what he's going to do with that old case.  Every night I pray that he can do it and make it stick.  Apparently the current states attorney (and proud Mexican-American) has been appealing cases like Joses preventing people from clearing their records and therefore making it impossible for them to fight their immigration cases.

On the upside Jose applied to work at the prison, me dijo "alcabo aqui no piden papeles".  It's good to see that he is in good spirits and has kept his sense of humor.  Extraño mucho a mi Gordo.
