BREAKING: Justices Will Review If Trump Can Bypass Asylum At Border
Britain Eakin for Law360 reports that the Supreme Court today accepted review of a case raising the question whether President Donald Trump's proclamation declaring an invasion and imposing restrictions on entering the country allows the administration to quickly deport people arriving at the border and block them from seeking asylum. Here is information about the case.
The government sought review of a "D.C. Circuit ruling that the executive branch lacks authority to bypass the Immigration and Nationality Act's removal procedures. Neither Section 1182(f) of the INA, which governs the suspension of entry, nor Section 1185(a)(1) governing departures, gives the president the power to create a new summary expulsion procedure not contained in the statute that strips noncitizens of the right to seek asylum or other removal protections, the circuit court said."
