Brian Murphy Rules Trump's Third-Country Deportations Illegal
USA District Judge Brian Murphy ruled that the Donald Trump administration policy of deporting immigrants to third countries without notice is illegal.The Massachusetts court found that the DHS violated due process by denying migrants the opportunity to raise protection claims before removal.Brian Murphy stayed the decision for 15 days to allow the government to appeal following a class-action lawsuit involving deportations to nations like Djibouti and South Sudan.The ruling emphasizes that the government cannot deport individuals to countries they have no ties to without providing meaningful notice and a chance to object.
