IJ Crosland is always late. Every. Single. Time. For ICHs he does not allow counsel or DHS to ask any questions until he is bored. Sometimes he falls asleep, but not for long. He has a quick temper and gets frustrated when clients do not answer his questions directly. Despite this, he is fair and often grants asylum cases that are meritorious.
