Summary

The Supreme Court voted 6-3 to pause a federal district judge's ruling that had blocked the Trump administration from quickly deporting migrants with final removal orders to countries other than their own without a chance to raise torture or persecution fears. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson dissented. The Court will hear full oral arguments on the policy in December, with a ruling expected by next summer.
