- Court: Trump’s immigrant mass detention policy contradicts 30 years of precedent
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Trump administration’s policy of denying bond hearings to most unauthorized immigrants in U.S. detention violates over 30 years of precedent treating interior detainees differently from border apprehensions. The court found the administration’s blanket detention approach fills centers and clogs courts, with Judge Daniel Bress noting consistent government practice of granting bond hearings to interior detainees.
