- Judge denies Berkeley law professor’s request to compel ICE data
A federal judge in San Francisco denied a UC Berkeley law professor's motion to compel U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to release 14 years of detention and deportation data under a preliminary injunction. The judge cited a lack of imminent, irreparable harm from the delay in obtaining the data, which the professor sought to use for public accountability and research on ICE enforcement practices.
- Berkeley professor seeks expedited release of ICE data
A University of California, Berkeley law professor sued U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for failing to respond to Freedom of Information Act requests seeking immigration data. A federal judge acknowledged the professor's likely success on the merits but questioned the urgency of emergency relief for data over a decade old. The professor's attorney argued timely access is critical for analyzing historical immigration trends, while the Justice Department opposed the injunction as overly broad.
