Update: Immigrants oppose third-country removal stay; Court has not ruled overnight
Graphic: World Brief Now

Lawyers for immigrants filed a Supreme Court brief Monday opposing the Trump administration’s emergency request to pause a Massachusetts district court order that requires notice and a chance to be heard before deportation to a third country, SCOTUSblog reported. Solicitor General D. John Sauer’s Sept. 24 application in Department of Homeland Security v. D.V.D., No. 26A406, seeks a stay after the First Circuit largely upheld Judge Brian Murphy’s limits and dissolved its prior pause. As of this morning’s check of coverage, the Court had not issued a new order overnight; the justices are expected to decide the stay in the coming days.
