Case Overview

Detainees in an immigration detention facility in the Florida Everglades known as 'Alligator Alcatraz," represented by the ACLU, sued the Trump administration over the Trump administration's attempts to prevent them from contacting legal counsel. This suit was originally filed in the Southern District of Florida under docket number 1:25-cv-23182 before being transferred to the Middle District.


The Application

History

Detainees at the facility were allegedly prevented from contacting legal counsel by the Trump administration; the ACLU challenges these restrictions as unconstitutional interference with protected rights.

The Conclusion

The case is active in the Middle District of Florida following transfer from the Southern District; the court has not yet ruled on the merits or preliminary relief requests.
