The Board of Immigration Appeals is the DOJ unit reviewing immigration court and USCIS decisions; it has current cases shaping deportation and TPS policy.
A federal judge has ruled that a U.S. immigration policy violates federal law and causes irreparable harm. The decision impacts detainees seeking release and challenges the Trump-era detention rules. The ruling could lead to thousands of detainees gaining access to bail, marking a significant shift in immigration enforcement.
The Third Circuit has declined to rehear Mahmoud Khalil's challenge to his detention and potential deportation, leaving open a path for a Supreme Court review as Khalil pursues First Amendment and due process claims amid a high-profile pro-Palestinian campus case.
The Third Circuit has stayed its ruling to allow Khalil’s case to proceed to the Supreme Court while he appeals. Khalil, a lawful permanent resident, has challenged his detention and deportation linked to pro-Palestinian activism. Separate immigration court proceedings continue, with an appeal to the 5th Circuit also looming.
