#NationwideInjunctions
#SCOTUS’ decision restricted the #power of lower-court judges to issue #nationwideinjunctions.

The states have argued #Trump’s #birthrightcitizenship order is blatantly #unconstitutional & threatens millions of dollars for #healthinsurance contingent on #citizenship. The issue is expected to […]

The #scotus June decision to scale back the ability of lower #courts to issue #nationwideinjunctions, & the administration’s success at persuading the justices to overturn about a dozen temporary blocks on its agenda in recent months, might only embolden #trump officials to defy lower courts […]

But #scotus raised the possibility that #nationwideinjunctions are still permissible in certain circumstances, including #classactions, in which similarly situated people sue as a group, or if they are the only way to provide "complete relief" to litigants in a particular lawsuit.

Friday's […]

The 3 judges who issued #nationwideinjunctions found that #trump's directive likely violates #citizenship language in the US #constitution's #14thamendment. The amendment states that all "persons born or naturalized in the United States, & subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the […]

The #trump admin said it would move quickly to challenge #nationwideinjunctions. However, the ruling by #SCOTUS’ 6-3 conservative majority contained exceptions, allowing federal #judges to continue to issue sweeping rulings blocking key parts of Trump's agenda.

#judges keep blocking Trump's policies despite #scotus injunction curbs

#trump called SCOTUS’ June 27 decision limiting the ability of federal judges to use #nationwideinjunctions to block his policies “a monumental victory”but his #legal win may be less definitive than it first seemed […]

Some of the policies that the #trump administration has tried to bring into effect, only to be blocked by #nationwideinjunctions that remain in force, for now:

— A (redundant) #voter ID #executiveorder that requires proof of #citizenship

— Federal Funding Freeze that froze trillions of dollars […]

Still, #SCOTUS’ ruling doesn’t mean they will instantly evaporate. Experts say the next step is for individual courts to apply the new precedent in their own cases. In some instances, the #doj will likely challenge existing #nationwideinjunctions to see if they need to be pared back under the […]

The #trump admin has argued that lower-court judges are relying on #nationwideinjunctions to interfere w/Trump’s agenda in ways that overstep the #courts’ constitutional role; his critics say that the rise in nationwide injunctions is driven by…the admin’s willingness to flout the #law in the […]

District-court judges have repeatedly used #nationwideinjunctions to block #trump admin policies, including to halt the #massfirings of civil servants, the defunding of #foreignaid & the relocation of #transgender women in #federalprisons to men’s housing. Some of those injunctions have been […]

Friday’s ruling will lead to a drastic reduction in the #FederalCourts’ ability to check the White House, according to Judith Resnik, a professor at Yale Law School. #nationwideinjunctions give #courts “the capacity to tell the key nationwide actor, the #executivebranch, to behave lawfully,” she […]

#SCOTUS’ opinion setting new limits on the #power of district-court #judges to use one of their most potent tools— #nationwideinjunctions —marks the beginning of a profound shift in the way the #federalcourts operate.

Before, >1k judges had the power to issue nationwide orders that could stop […]

Well, this is all very upsetting.

Apparently #nixon was right.

If the president does it, then it isn’t illegal.

At least according to this #scotus.

Pretty much the final nail in the coffin of #democracy in the #unitedstates.
