The Department of Justice has initiated a lawsuit against federal judges in Maryland, targeting a recent court order that temporarily halts the deportation of migrants contesting their detention. This order arose to protect immigrants' due process rights amidst reports of deportations occurring at unconventional hours, hindering their ability to appeal. The DOJ argues that federal courts cannot interfere in deportation under immigration law and describes the state judge's actions as a significant breach of judicial boundaries that impedes the administration's powers concerning immigration enforcement.
The suit seeks to upend an order from a Maryland judge last month protecting immigrants' due process rights.
The DOJ calls last month's order an 'egregious example of judicial overreach, one that would interfere with the Trump administration's prerogatives.'
