Trump turns to 'zombie' court after Boasberg pointed to it in deportation fight

The Trump administration is attempting to deport an illegal immigrant suspected of terrorism through the Alien Terrorist Removal Court (ATRC), a rarely used court established in 1996 that has never processed a case. The Justice Department filed its first application for a removal order with the ATRC in July, citing a law allowing deportations based on sealed classified evidence, following a suggestion by Judge James Boasberg in a prior case involving the Alien Enemies Act.
