PART 253_PAROLE OF ALIEN CREWMEN--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  253.2  Termination of parole.

    (a) General. At the expiration of the period of parole authorized by 
the district director, or when the purpose of the parole has been 
served, whichever is earlier, the agent upon whom the relating Form I-
259 was served as provided in Sec.  253.1, shall present the alien 
crewman for inspection to an immigration officer at the Service office 
specified in the Form I-259. If the agent cannot present the alien 
crewman, the agent shall immediately submit a report of the reasons 
therefor to the district director. The district director shall take such 
further action as the circumstances may require. If the vessel or 
aircraft on which the alien crewman arrived in the United States is 
still in the United States when he is presented for inspection, he shall 
be treated as an applicant for a conditional landing permit and his case 
shall be dealt with in the same manner as any other applicant for a 
conditional landing permit. If the vessel or aircraft on which the alien 
crewman arrived in the United States departed before he was presented 
for inspection, the agent shall be directed by means of written notice 
on Form I-259 to arrange for the removal of the alien crewman from the 
United States, and if such alien crewman thereafter departs voluntarily 
from the United States within the time specified by the district 
director, such departure shall not be considered a deportation within 
the meaning of this section.
    (b) Revocation of parole. When an immigration officer has reason to 
believe that an alien crewman paroled into the United States pursuant to 
the provisions of Sec.  253.1 has violated the conditions of parole, the 
immigration officer may take such alien crewman into custody without a 
warrant of arrest. Following such action, the alien crewman shall be 
accorded, without undue delay, an examination by another immigration 
officer. If it is determined on the basis of such examination that the 
individual detained is an alien crewman who was paroled into the United 
States pursuant to the provisions of Sec.  253.1 and that he has 
violated the conditions of the parole or has remained in the United 
States beyond the period authorized by the district director, the 
district director shall cause to be served upon the alien crewman a 
written notice that his parole has been revoked, setting forth the 
reasons for such action. If the vessel or aircraft upon which the alien 
crewman arrived in the United States is still in the United States, the 
alien crewman shall be delivered to that vessel or aircraft and Form I-
259 shall be served upon the master or commanding officer of the vessel 
or aircraft directing that the alien crewman be detained on board the 
vessel or aircraft and deported from the United States. A copy of Form 
I-259 shall also be served on the agent for the vessel or aircraft. If 
the vessel or aircraft upon which the alien crewman arrived in the 
United States has departed from the United States, the agent or owner of 
the vessel or aircraft shall be directed by means of a notice on Form I-
259 to effect the deportation of the alien crewman from the United 
States. Pending deportation, the alien crewman shall be continued in 
custody, unless the district director authorizes his release on parole 
under such conditions, including the posting of a suitable bond, as the 
district director may prescribe.
