INS v. Chadha
Procedural History
Appellee- respondent, Chadha, a Kenyan Indian studying in the US, sort suspension of the deportation order after the House of Representations created a resolution that reopened proceedings at the Immigration Court. The House of Representatives inhibited a previous order by the Attorney General to stop deportation of the appellee. The Board of Immigration Appeals dismissed an appeal to stop the House resolution. The petitioner claimed that the House resolution was unconstitutional and petitioned the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. This Court granted petitioner Chadha writ of certiorari and directed the Attorney General to stop and discontinue the deportation process of the petitioner because of the resolution passed by the House (INS V. Chadha, 462 U.S. 919, 1983, 2012).
Facts
Chadha submitted an application to seek suspension of the deportation order filed by the District Director of the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), in the Immigration Court, in accordance with Section 242(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act), 8 USC. The Immigration Judge suspended the order and forwarded a report to Congress, which had the constitutional right under Section 244(c) (2) to dismiss the decision of the Attorney General (INS V. Chadha, 462 U.S. 919, 1983, 2012). Field v. Clark, 143 U.S. 649(1892) looked into a similar situation where a bill approved by the House of Representatives and accented by the President failed to go through the Congress. (Field v. Clark, 143 U.S. 649, 1892, 2012)

Yes.
Reasoning
The House of Representatives has the authority under Section 244(c) (2), to dismiss the attorney general’s ruling. The petition in the Court of Appeals did not question the House’s power to veto a previous ruling, but the way in the representatives made the resolution a law (Ha
is & Tichelor, 2010, p. 282). The Immigration judge acted within the legal provisions of Section 244(a) (1), which requires an alien to be of inco
uptible character through the over 7 years spent in the county (INS v. Chadha, n.d).
Chadha was indeed in the country as an alien because he had overstayed the duration of the student Visa. However, his claims did not fit the compounded reasoning of extreme hardship that would make the Attorney General suspend his deportation. He had the mandate to petition because the resolution did not pass through the Senate. Neither did representatives vote for it, nor did it go through the president (INS v. Chadha, n.d).
The Court of Appeals acted in agreement to Section 106(a) of the same Act. This authority concerns all issues pertaining to deportation cases aside from the rulings and decisions made by lower courts. Article One, 1 of the US. Constitution states that...
