Lawyers representing migrants, who are set to be deported to third countries such as Sudan or Libya, have made an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold due process protections. These protections were initially ordered by a federal judge in Boston. The appeal comes in response to what attorneys describe as the Trump administration’s actions that undermine court-mandated due process, leaving a group of migrants stranded in Djibouti without communication abilities. Legal advocates from organizations including the National Immigration Litigation Alliance and the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project have filed a document urging the Supreme Court to maintain these protections.
