The Trump administration asks the Supreme Court to make the limits of deportations to “third countries”

Washington – The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court on Tuesday to facilitate the deportation of criminals sentenced to “third countries” which are not their country of origin.

The administration seeks to block an injunction in which the American district judge based in Massachusetts, Brian Murphy, said that immigrants affected at the national level should receive a “significant opportunity” to raise concerns that they could be at risk of torture, persecution or death.

Murphy then said that they should have at least 10 days to bring their complaints.

Last week, he said that the administration had violated his previous order By piloting eight migrants in South Sudan. Men are now held in an American installation in Djibouti.

All immigrants potentially affected by the dispute are already subject to expulsion but cannot be sent to their country of origin, so that the case depends on what they receive before they can be expelled.

The Solicitor General D. John Sauer wrote in the new file that Murphy’s decisions oblige the government to undertake “a set of expensive procedures” which he did not have the power to demand.

“These procedures created by justice are currently wreaking havoc on the process of suppressing the third country. In addition to usurping the authority of the executive on immigration policy, the injunction disrupts sensitive diplomatic efforts, foreign and national security policy,” Sauer wrote.

Trina Realmuto, lawyer for the National Immigration Alliance Alliance who represents the complainants, said in a press release that Murphy had taken limited and appropriate actions to ensure that people have regular procedure protections before the government can expel them to third countries. “

The initial order of Murphy in April concluded that the applicants simply require a regular basic procedure.

“The complainants simply ask to be informed that they will be expelled in a new country before being taken to such a country and having the opportunity to explain why such an expulsion will probably lead to their persecution, their torture and / or their death,” he wrote.

Monday evening, Murphy rejected a government attempt to reconsider his requirements with regard to men now in South Sudan.

“It turns out that having an immigration procedure on another continent is more difficult and heavier logistics than the defendants have provided it,” he wrote.

“He continues to be sincere hope for this court that reason can take over the rhetoric,” he added.
