US court allows Trump to expand expedited deportations across the country
A US federal appeals court has allowed the Trump administration to apply expedited deportations nationwide, overturning a lower court order that had paused the expansion. The fast-track process lets authorities remove many migrants without a hearing before an immigration judge. Civil-rights groups say the decision strips away due-process protections.
A US federal appeals court has cleared the Trump administration to apply its expedited removal policy across the country, overturning a lower court order that had suspended the expansion.
The fast-track process allows authorities to deport many migrants without a hearing before an immigration judge. The administration argues the measure deters unlawful entry and speeds an overburdened system.
Civil-rights groups say the ruling weakens due-process protections and could lead to wrongful deportations. Plaintiffs are expected to appeal, and legal analysts say the question may ultimately reach the Supreme Court.
