A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday the Trump administration cannot jail immigrants without bond, citing “serious constitutional questions” related to what it said would otherwise be the broadest mass-detention-without-bond mandate in the nation's history for millions of noncitizens.
The unanimous ruling from a panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City sets the stage for a possible U.S. Supreme Court appeal. That's because panels on the 8th and 5th circuit courts have already upheld the policy put in place by President Donald Trump's administration last July.
