Supreme Court Lifts Restrictions on Immigration Stops in Southern California

A lower court judge previously blocked federal authorities from stopping or arresting individuals based on the language they speak or where they work.

The Supreme Court on Sept. 8 temporarily put on hold a lower court order restricting immigration stops in Southern California.

Three justices dissented from the new order.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) started its operations in the Los Angeles area on June 6. Local and state officials have strongly criticized the effort, saying the federal government is overstepping its legal authority. Several illegal immigrant advocacy groups are suing the Trump administration over the enforcement program.

The new high court order pauses a temporary restraining order Judge Maame Frimpong of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California issued on July 11 that limits the factors law enforcement officials may use when making immigration-related stops and arrests.

Specifically, Frimpong barred the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from stopping or arresting individuals based exclusively on factors such as the language the person speaks or where the person works.

In the emergency application in Noem v. Perdomo, which was filed Aug. 7, the Supreme Court on Sept. 8 granted the stay pending an appeal that is before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Justices Sonia Sotomayor filed an opinion dissenting from the new order. Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson concurred in the dissent.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh filed an opinion concurring in the stay order.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
