Thank you for your question and for being part of ASAP’s community! In general, asylum seekers cannot be deported while their case is still pending before immigration court. During your first hearing, the judge should ask you some initial questions about your case, and schedule you for your next hearing. The first hearing is usually very short. On the contrary, if someone does not attend a scheduled immigration hearing, an immigration judge will likely give you a deportation order. For that reason it is very important to attend your first hearing in immigration court!
