Court and Overstayed Visas

u.s: The request for review by the Supreme Court is unusual because an appellate court has yet to rule on U.S. District Judge William Alsup's Jan. 9 preliminary injunction, according to Metro News. The DOJ says without Supreme Court intervention, Alsup's decision could stay in place for more than a year. In a court filing late Thursday, attorneys with the U.S. Department of Justice say the judge's ruling requires officials to keep the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in place even though they have determined it's illegal.DACA has protected about 800,000 people who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children or came with families who overstayed visas.
