A Federal Judge, on Wednesday, struck Down most of the Policies, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, issued that made it almost Impossible for Victims of Domestic and Gang Violence to seek Asylum.
Judge Emmet Sullivan, on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, said the Policies, which Created a Stricter Test to Satisfy the “Credible Fear” Standard for the Asylum Claims, was Unlawful.
He also Ordered the Government to Return to the United States the Plaintiffs who were Unlawfully Deported under the Policy.
Sullivan is the same Judge who on Tuesday Admonished Michael Flynn for Committing a “Serious Offense” by Lying to the FBI about his Discussions with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak while Serving in a High-Level Role at the White House.
The Decision Bars the Trump Administration from Rapidly Deporting such Asylum Seekers and Represents another Legal Setback in President Trump’s Battle to Discourage Migrants from Trekking to the U.S.-Mexico Border.
Sullivan wrote in a Detailed 107-page Opinion that New Credible Fear Policies stemming from an Immigration Court Opinion issued in June ran Afoul of Congressional intent.
“And because it is the will of Congress — not the whims of the executive — that determines the standard for expedited removal, the court finds that those policies are unlawful,” Sullivan wrote.
