Their lawsuit contends that their removal was unlawful, citing a violation of federal law and a significant Supreme Court precedent established 90 years prior. Counsel for Slaughter and Bedoya express confidence in their legal standing, asserting that existing laws support their claims. More details on this legal challenge are available through the National Law Journal.
