Supreme Court: Court and Ban

supreme court: The ruling says Trump's proclamation makes no finding whatsoever that simply being from one of the countries cited in the ban makes someone a security risk, according to Metro News. Hawaii, which is suing to stop the ban, has argued that it will be harmed because families will be separated and university recruitment will be hampered. However, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals judges put their decision on hold pending review by the U.S. Supreme Court, meaning the ban involving six majority Muslim countries will remain in effect. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court lifted temporary lower court orders that had prevented the latest ban from taking effect. The ruling but was unusual, but it's a unique case, he said, noting the Supreme Court has not set argument dates because it has not yet decided to grant an appeal. The status quo was maintained when the 9th Circuit stayed its decision, said Carl Tobias, a professor at the University of Richmond School of Law. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
