Judge Orders US to Return #Colombian Woman Deported to #Congo
The unusual ruling came after the judge found that the #Trump admin had most likely violated the #law by deporting the 55-year-old woman to the African country despite its refusal to take her.
The judge ordered the admin to return the woman, Adriana Maria Quiroz Zapata to the #US, a rare instance of a judge doing so amid the admin’s #deportation campaign.

Quoting
All of this has happened on the shadow docket. So the Roberts Court has ok’d election cancellation without merits briefing, oral argument, etc.
This would be extraordinary and pernicious enough. But because Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented and pointed out how exceptional and dangerous the Court’s order is, Alito, joined by Gorsuch and Thomas, wrote an opinion basically calling her uppity. 4/

"This isn’t about constitutional reform. It’s about politics. More specifically, it’s part of a broader and increasingly brazen conservative effort to either control the courts or, failing that, convince the public not to trust them." https://www.canadianlawyermag.com/news/opinion/danielle-smith-drags-the-judiciary-deeper-into-her-partisan-mud-slinging/393813

"The Trump administration...appears to be manipulating the judicial process to dramatically reduce the chance that Somali immigrants are granted asylum.
Matthew Happock is an immigration lawyer based in Kansas City. He currently represents eight Somali migrants in immigration court. On February 4, Happock said that all his cases had been reassigned to a new immigration judge."
