Bruce Buchanan, partner-in-charge of Immigration Practice, King &Barrow, LLP

A recent Office of Chief Administrative Hearing Officer (OCAHO) decision, U.S. v. Alyn Industries d/b/a Electronic Source Company, 10 OCAHO No. 1141 (2011), demonstrates continuing evidence of differences between Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) and OCAHO in the 5/16/12

Despite not finding Alyn should receive any reduction in the amount of fines due to any mitigating factors, OCAHO concluded As a matter of discretion, a penalty nearer the midrange are found more appropriate and the penalties are accordingly set at $700 each for the 60 most serious violations and $500 each for the other two violations, for a total penalty of $43,000. Although OCAHO denied this was a similar case to U.S. v. Snack Attack Deli (Subway), 10 OCAHO No. 1137 (2010), where OCAHO determined the company could not afford the fine sought by ICE, the result is eerily similar. In Snack Attack, OCAHO lowered the fines from $110,000 to $27,150 without any reasoned analysis. The Alyn decision demonstrates OCAHO will continue to assert its discretion in determining the penalties 5/16/12 and will not feel bound by ICEs Guide in this determination.

Alyn asserted it was a small business because it employed 62 employees in July 2009, the time of the I-9 audit, and was down to 50 employees in December 2010. Moreover, it had a net loss of about $271,000 in 2010 and net income of only about $78,000 in 2009. ICE argued Alyn was a moderate sized 5/16/12
