Can the government send me back to Immigration court?

I was given asylum by an immigration judge 10 years ago and became a permanent resident. Now, 10 years later, the BIA sent the case back to immigration court to gather more evidence if necessary. I am already a resident and did not know that immigration had appealed my asylum grant to the BIA. Can they send me back to immigration court in my asylum case when I already am a resident? Dont they have to do something different to take away my residence? What do I tell the judge when I see him?

Check with a lawyer in your locale to discuss more of the details of the asylum grant.

Too many variable exist and much is missing from your short post.

Good luck to you.

God bless.
