Legal/scotus thread

A federal judge in Boston ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration’s policy of deporting undocumented immigrants to countries where they are not citizens is unconstitutional, saying the government must provide more time for people to legally challenge their removals over concerns that they could face imminent danger.

U.S. District Judge Brian E. Murphy’s final decision invalidates a policy memo last spring from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that allows enforcement officers to deport migrants to countries that are not their own with as little as six hours’ notice.
