Case Overview

The government appealed Judge Briones's order permanently enjoining the Trump administration from detaining, transferring, or removing M.A.P.S. and members of the certified class under the Alien Enemies Act.


The Application

History

Judge Briones found that the Trump administration's attempted detention, transfer, and removal of M.A.P.S. and the certified class violated constitutional or statutory limits, issuing a permanent injunction. The government now appeals, challenging the injunction's validity.

The Conclusion

The 5th Circuit is reviewing the district court's injunction on appeal; currently, the government remains enjoined from detaining, transferring, or removing M.A.P.S. members under the Alien Enemies Act.
