Manuel Armando Arpi (A# 074-149-491) must be released from Orange County Correctional Facility NOW! Urge ICE to give him a day in court.We demand that he be given his legal right to see an immigration judge in court and fight his case without being in a detention camp.

Manuel Armando Arpi migrated to the US in 1995 and could potentially qualify for the Dream Act. He left Ecuador with the hopes to find a better life and to live with dignity. When coming to the US, he was detained and released on bond. Manuel was recently made aware that his detention in 1995 resulted in a removal order -- he was still a minor.

Today, Manuel is the main sustenance for the family he formed with his wife Marcia, and his two beautiful children -- Bryant who is 17 years old and Jefferson who is 15 years old. Manuel has already missed important and memorable dates with his family. Please release Manuel and reunite him with his family who miss him and need him by their side.
