CHAPTER I--IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
 
PART 240--PROCEEDINGS TO DETERMINE REMOVABILITY OF ALIENS IN THE UNITED STATES--Table of Contents
 
   Subpart F--Suspension of Deportation and Voluntary Departure (for 
              Proceedings Commenced Prior to April 1, 1997)
 
Sec. 240.57  Extension of time to depart.

    Authority to reinstate or extend the time within which to depart 
voluntarily specified initially by an immigration judge or the Board is 
within the sole jurisdiction of the district director, except that an 
immigration judge or the Board may reinstate voluntary departure in a 
deportation proceeding that has been reopened for a purpose other than 
solely making an application for voluntary departure. A request by an 
alien for reinstatement or an extension of time within which to depart 
voluntarily shall be filed with the district director having 
jurisdiction over the alien's place of residence. Written notice of the 
district director's decision shall be served upon the alien and no 
appeal may be taken therefrom.
