Advocates Sue Trump Administration over Policy of Re-Arresting Immigrants
Civil rights advocates have filed a federal class-action lawsuit against the Trump administration, accusing immigration officials of unlawfully re-arresting and detaining immigrants who were previously released after being determined not to be dangerous or flight risks.
The lawsuit challenges what plaintiffs describe as an
"unprecedented and unlawful" reversal of decades of federal policy that respected the due process rights of noncitizens living in the community.
The complaint, filed in the U.S., accuses immigration officials of violating the due process rights of noncitizens.
