Biden Judge's Block on Deportations to Third Countries Sent to Appeals Court After Supreme Ruling
The Department of Justice is appealing a Biden-appointed federal judge's block on third-country deportations after it was stepped in by the Supreme Court twice. The case involves the Trump administration's efforts to deport illegal immigrants to countries not designated for repatriation.
The Department of Justice has appealed a block on third-country deportations by a Biden-appointed federal judge, who had previously blocked similar actions by the Trump administration. The Supreme Court had stepped in twice to hear the case, and the Justice Department is now seeking relief from an appeals court. The dispute centers on whether immigrants can be deported to countries not designated for such purposes. The outcome will determine how deportations to third countries are carried out going forward.
