Case Overview

New Jersey and the town of Roxbury sued the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement over the plan to build a large-scale immigration detention facility in an industrial warehouse in Roxbury.


The Application

History

New Jersey and Roxbury challenge DHS/ICE's detention facility plan, arguing inadequate procedural compliance under the APA, insufficient environmental review under NEPA, and failure to respect local zoning and land-use requirements.

The Conclusion

The case remains active with no final judgment; resolution will determine whether the agency action was procedurally and substantively lawful and the extent to which local zoning applies to federal detention construction.
