A Florida judge is set to consider whether to order the shutdown of the immigrant detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz" over claims that it could cause "irreparable" harm to the Everglades area in which it is set up.
The Miami Herald noted that the groups are seeking a preliminary injunction to stop operations at the site. They are Friends of the Everglades, the Center for Biological Diversity, Earthjustice and the Miccosukee Tribe.
