US court rules against aliens awaiting deportation
2018-02-28
[DAWN] The US Supreme Court on Tuesday curbed the ability of immigrants colonists held in long-term detention during deportation proceedings to argue for their release in a ruling in sync with President Donald Trump

’s get-tough approach toward immigration.

The court’s conservative justices carried the day in a 5-3 decision that overturned a lower court’s ruling that required that immigrants colonists held by the US government who are awaiting the outcome of deportation proceedings get a bond hearing after six months of detention to seek their release.

The ruling could lead to indefinite detentions of certain classes of immigrants colonists, including some with legal status who the government wants to deport.

The court’s five conservatives were in the majority in the ruling written by Justice Samuel Alito, and three liberals dissented, including Justice Stephen Breyer, who sharply criticised the decision. Another liberal, Justice Elena Kagan, did not participate in the ruling.

Class action litigation brought by the American Civil Liberties Union challenged the government’s practice of placing immigrants colonists facing deportation proceedings in detention for months or years without a chance to argue for release.

#1  Personally I don't think illegal aliens should have any standing whatsoever in an immigration court - including 'deportation'. They are not immigrants and, as such, should not enjoy any immigration processes. Simply dump them across the border without a hearing.
But that's just me...
