Trump turns to 'zombie' court after Boasberg pointed to it in deportation fight
The Trump administration is using the long-dormant Alien Terrorist Removal Court (ATRC) to pursue deportation of an unnamed immigrant suspected of terrorism, marking the first application in the court's 30-year history. The move follows a suggestion by Judge James Boasberg, who highlighted the ATRC as an alternative to the Alien Enemies Act during a prior legal dispute over deportation methods.
