Section 151 — Migration Act 1958: Certain warrants stay removal or deportation

(1) If an unlawful non-citizen is to be, or is likely to be, removed or deported, this Act does not prevent a court issuing for the purposes of the administration of criminal justice in relation to an offence against a law a warrant to stay the removal or deportation. (2) If a criminal justice stay warrant about a non-citizen is in force, the non-citizen is not to be removed or deported. (3) If a court issues a criminal justice stay warrant about a non-citizen, the applicant for the warrant is responsible for the costs of any maintenance or accommodation (other than immigration detention) of the non-citizen while the warrant is in force.
