The Application
Here, two non-citizens are being held at GITMO ostensibly for civil immigration proceedings rather than criminal custody. The use of a military detention facility for civilian immigration detainees raises questions about compliance with statutory detention procedures and whether proper facility standards for immigration detention are met at this venue.
The Conclusion
The case is active in D.C. District Court before Judge Sooknanan. The suit challenges the government's authority to hold civil immigrant detainees at Guantánamo Bay and seeks class certification, presenting an open question of whether immigration detainees may be held outside standard immigration detention infrastructure.
