The Trump administration says it will appeal a court order<\/a> requiring it to allow hundreds of noncitizens who were deported in March to El Salvador to challenge their detentions.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg last week ordered the Trump administration to give the hundreds of men deported to El Salvador<\/a> under the Alien Enemies Act the right to challenge their detentions as unlawful.<\/p>\n

Lawyers with the Department of Justice filed a notice of appeal Tuesday, signaling plans to challenge a lower court’s decision in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration touched off a legal battle in March when it invoked the Alien Enemies Act<\/a> — an 18th century wartime authority used to remove noncitizens with little-to-no due process — to deport two planeloads of alleged migrant gang members to El Salvador by arguing that the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua is a “hybrid criminal state” that is invading the United States.<\/p>\n

An official with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement acknowledged<\/a> that “many” of the men deported on March 15 lack criminal records in the United States — but said that “the lack of specific information about each individual actually highlights the risk they pose” and “demonstrates that they are terrorists with regard to whom we lack a complete profile.”<\/p>\n

White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson slammed Boasberg’s decision last week, saying in a statement that Boasberg lacks the authority to intervene in the deportations.<\/p>\n

“Judge Boasberg has no authority to intervene with immigration or national security — authority that rests squarely with President Trump and the Executive Branch. His current and previous attempts to prevent President Trump from deporting criminal illegal aliens poses a direct threat to the safety of the American people,” Jackson said, referring to other recent rulings<\/a> by the judge.<\/p>\n

“Fortunately for the American people, Judge Boasberg does not have the last word,” Jackson said.<\/p>\n

Boasberg, in last week’s ruling, said that the detainees — regardless of their alleged criminal status — deserve the right to challenge the government’s claims against them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
