Overstaying alien worker surfaces due to ill health
Superior Court Associate Judge David A. Wiseman has ordered the deportation of an alien worker who, after overstaying in the CNMI for over eight months, surfaced due to an illness.
Wiseman issued the deportation of 29-year-old Jin Lu following Lu’s and the Division of Immigration Services’ stipulation that he is a deportable alien.
Assistant attorney general Kathleen Busenkell is the legal counsel for Immigration. Lu has no lawyer.
Lu did not dispute that he is a Chinese national and a deportable alien in that he overstayed his nonresident entry permit.
According to Immigration investigator John Peter, the respondent’s nonresident worker’s entry permit expired on Nov. 15, 2007.
In court papers, Peter said Lu came in to the Attorney General’s Investigation Unit’s office to seek help because he is very sick and does not have the money to buy an airline ticket to go home.
Lu did not contest to being deported because he wants to see a doctor in China as soon as possible. The nature of his illness was not indicated in court documents.
Labor records show that the alien worker used to be an embroidery operator helper for Zhang’s Corp.
