Appeals Court Sides with Judge Who Blocked Deportations

A three-judge panel from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has denied the White House's push to restart deportations under a rarely used wartime authority.

By a vote of 2 to 1, the judges on Wednesday left in place a lower court order that temporarily blocked the Trump administration from quickly deporting alleged Venezuelan gang members under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.

"The government's removal scheme denies Plaintiffs even a gossamer thread of due process," Millett wrote in a concurring statement.

"No notice, no hearing, no opportunity"zero process"to show that they are not members of the gang, to contest their eligibility for removal under the law, or to invoke legal protections against being sent to a place where it appears likely they will be tortured and their lives endangered."

The ruling upholds a temporary restraining order from District Court Judge James Boasberg, who blocked the Trump administration on March 15 from removing immigrants under the act."

Your turn, Chief Justice Roberts.
