Ninth Circuit deepens split among appeals courts over Trump’s mandatory detention policy
The Trump administration argues the INA has allowed this policy, but that previous presidential administrations declined to enact it. The 9th Circuit joined the 2nd, 6th, 7th, 10th, and 11th Circuits in rejecting the administration’s policy, countering the 5th and 8th Circuits, which have said the policy is lawful. Circuit Judge Daniel Bress, an appointee of President Donald Trump, said in his ruling.
