13th S.F. immigration judge fired. Court will soon have just 4 judges left.
San Francisco’s immigration court will lose three more judges in the coming weeks, two of them to retirement and a third who was fired on Friday. Immigration judge Arwen Swink was terminated this afternoon by the Department of Justice, according to three court sources. That leaves just seven judges on the court today, but three more will retire by the end of the year.
