Perdomo, et al. v. Noem
Case Overview
The government appealed Judge Frimpong's order which prevents federal immigration agents from using race, ethnicity, Spanish language skills, presence at a particular location, or type of work one does as a basis to stop and question individuals about their immigration status.
The Application
The district court enjoined federal agents from using any of these criteria as a basis for stops, finding they violated constitutional protections. The government appeals, arguing that location and employment context are relevant to immigration enforcement and that a categorical prohibition exceeds the court's proper authority.
The Conclusion
The Ninth Circuit appeal is pending, with the court to determine whether the lower court's protective injunction stands or is reversed or modified on appeal.
