Over 4,000 immigration cases have been canceled in Florida, the overwhelming majority in Miami, in light of the 26-day partial federal government shutdown. If the Dec. 22 shutdown continues through January, an estimated 10,000 cases would be canceled in Florida alone.

The data comes from Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), which uses government data and public case records to generate reports. The figures don’t include detention centers such as Miami’s Krome Detention Center, which are open despite the shutdown.
