Trump Administration Challenges Court Ruling on Third-Country Deportations

The Trump administration has appealed to the Supreme Court to lift restrictions on deporting immigrants to third countries, after a federal appeals court ruled that migrants must be given notice and a chance to contest their destination. The case, D.V.D. v. Department of Homeland Security, centers around the administration's use of third-country deportations, which send migrants to nations other than their country of origin or citizenship. The appeals court's ruling, which went into effect on Wednesday, requires the Department of Homeland Security to provide migrants with meaningful notice and an opportunity to raise fears of persecution or torture before deporting them to third countries.
