“The CBP Home app gives aliens the option to leave now and self-deport, so they may still have the opportunity to return legally in the future and live the American dream,” Noem said.
In a statement, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said that by self-deporting through the app, migrants "may still have the opportunity to return legally in the future and live the American dream".
This was a voluntary charter flight, not an ICE enforcement operation. All participants were offered the same benefits as any illegal alien who self-deports using the CBP Home App. They received travel assistance, a $1,000 stipend, and preserved the possibility they could one day return to the United States legally.

This is not an unusual situation since some acquisition vehicles are "newcos" that have not conducted any business activities prior to the acquisition.
If buyer has no such plans then the purchaser will probably be a newco, since in this structure the corporate veil will protect the buyer's assets from claims made against the target
Sales of divisions of larger businesses usually require the creation of a newco.
In this chapter we define collaborations between firms that involve the creation of a separate, autonomous, and legally recognized firm—a 'newco'—as a joint venture.
Another situation in which a Newco may be identified as the acquirer is illustrated in Example 10.8 below, where a parent uses a Newco to facilitate a public flotation of shares in a group of subsidiary companies.
Rangers manager Ally McCoist accepts there is likely to be opposition from fans of other clubs should the Ibrox side remain in the SPL as a newco.

pos: noun
examples: A merger can be implemented between the issuer ("Oldco") and a new corporation ("Newco") owned by the proponents, as a result of which Oldco shares not owned by the proponents are converted to cash and Newco shares remain outstanding.
In this structure, the acquirer (A) forms a wholly owned subsidiary (call it NewCo). A will transfer the merger consideration to NewCo in exchange for all of NewCo's stock. Then Target will merge into NewCo (or NewCo will merge into Target).
For this example, we're going to assume that a new company (we will call it NewCo) is going to build brick homes in the $250,000 price range.
Those who were more attached to NewCo discussed more positively their ability to charge OldCo for work, to take the 'commercial' view.

Then Jigmed gives me two rings, for my two sisters, one mounting a ruby, the other a turquoise, in rich Lhassa gold-work.
This dissolution of the art and artifacts of a whole culture to the crude denominator of bullion was especially ironic in view of the sheer multiplicity of use and image in pre-Columbian goldwork. No two figures are ever the same, and the range of imagery is as profuse as Colombian nature itself: alligators, jaguars, condors, deer, owls, lizards, macaws, and even hallucinogenic mushrooms.
