The Application
The expedited docket for Somali nationals raises whether the classification is rationally related to a legitimate governmental interest and whether the compressed timeline preserves adequate procedural safeguards required by immigration statutes and due process principles.
The Conclusion
The case is currently on appeal in the CADC following the district court's decision in 1:25-cv-00946; the appellate court will determine the legality of the expedited docket scheme.
