Key legal question
Whether the federal court could review the underlying asylum/removal decision in detention review proceedings
Extracted holding
The detention review concerned only the lawfulness of removal detention, not the asylum or removal decision itself; those requests were inadmissible.
Extracted reasoning
The scope of detention review is limited. Requests to set aside or reconsider the removal order or to grant provisional admission had to be addressed to the competent authorities, not in this proceeding.
