Biden urges the Supreme Court to deny bond hearings for immigrants
January 13, 2022
The Supreme Court was urged by the Biden administration lawyers to deny bond hearings and a chance to free immigrants being held for deportation after returning illegally to the US. The Justice Department asked the Supreme Court to overturn rulings by judges in California and Pennsylvania who held that such immigrants deserve a bond hearing if they are held longer than six months. These judges reasoned that detainees feared they would be subject to violence and torture if they were to be sent home. The Justice Department argues that immigrants in this category are to be held until they are deported.
