More details to this question:
2 years ago he got caught by immigration and had a domestic violence and had to be in AA but he couldn't finish it because he got deported. He came back to USA from MEXICO but state has him, I don't know if he can fight for his unfinished sentence because it wasn't his fault that immigration took him before he can finish. Will he be able to stay with bail?

Hello,
It is possible that your friend is being held by ICE because he reentered the U.S. illegally after a previous deportation. He will need the assistance of an experienced local immigration attorney to contact ICE to find out why he is in detention, and determine his best options. You may wish to call your local lawyers' referral program if you need help finding an immigration attorney in your area.
