U.S. District Court for Northern District of California Enjoins Trump Administration from Implementing New Asylum Restrictions

U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar issued an order enjoining the government from taking any action continuing to implement the July 16, 2019, DHS and DOJ joint interim final rule, entitled Asylum Eligibility and Procedural Modifications, and requiring the government to return to its pre-rule practices for processing asylum applications, pending final judgment or further order of the court.

The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) issued a security directive prohibiting use by the public of electronic devices, including cell phones, cameras, laptops, tablets, and MP3 players, in EOIR space, encompassing courtrooms, entrances/exits, corridors, conference rooms, and waiting areas. Attorneys or representatives of record, active members of a State Bar, and DHS attorneys representing the government in proceedings before the EOIR are permitted to use electronic devices in EOIR space for the limited purpose of conducting relevant court or business activities.
