D.B.U. v. Trump (Alien Enemies PI D10)
Case Overview
The government appealed Judge Sweeney's preliminary injunction which prevents the Trump administration from deporting non citizens under the Alien Enemies Act in the District of Colorado.
The Application
The district court found that plaintiffs demonstrated likelihood of success on due process grounds and irreparable harm from deportation, granting the preliminary injunction. The government appeals, arguing the Alien Enemies Act provides explicit statutory authority for removal that supersedes heightened procedural safeguards in national security contexts.
The Conclusion
The Tenth Circuit is reviewing the preliminary injunction's validity. The injunction remains in effect pending appellate decision, which will determine whether constitutional protections require additional procedures before Alien Enemies Act deportations may proceed.
