Aguilar-Mejia v. Holder, 616 F.3d 699 (7th Cir. Aug. 6, 2010) ("Although we must deny Aguilar-Mejias petition, we close by noting that we are aware of the exceptional humanitarian concerns raised in this case. . . . Missing his medication for even a brief period could be a literal death sentence. As the IJ noted, "almost all of [Aguilar-Mejias] witnesses testified that . . . the treatment [for AIDS] is not easily accessed and not readily available" in the countries designated for removal. For these reasons, we respectfully encourage the Attorney General, if asked by Aguilar-Mejia, to consider "deferred action," "humanitarian parole," or any other discretionary remedy that may be granted on humanitarian grounds.")
