Appeals court stay will prevent Mahmoud Khalil's removal while he seeks SCOTUS review
The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has granted a stay preventing the removal of pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil while he seeks Supreme Court review. This decision halts an earlier order that denied a rehearing of his detention case. Khalil, a green card holder, was previously detained by federal agents but was released last June.
- ▪The appeals court ruling allows Khalil to remain in the U.S. while his case is reviewed.
- ▪Khalil's detention was based on a determination by Secretary of State Marco Rubio regarding his speech.
- ▪The ACLU expressed gratitude for the court's recognition of the potential harm Khalil would face if re-detained.
