Supreme Court agrees to weigh in on case over rights of some in ‘prolonged’ ICE detention

The U.S. Supreme Court will review a case involving the prolonged detention of noncitizens with criminal records and whether they are entitled to a bond hearing. The case, Genalo v. Black, centers on a legal immigrant from the Dominican Republic detained for 21 months after an assault conviction. An appeals court previously ruled that unreasonably prolonged detention requires a bond hearing with 'clear and convincing evidence' from the government.
