Supreme Court Declines to Reinstate Biden-Era Rule on Suspending Deportation Cases

The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected a request from three U.S. cities to restore a Biden-era rule that allowed immigration judges to temporarily suspend deportation cases, a practice known as 'administrative closure.' The unsigned order follows a lawsuit filed by Texas in June, petitioning the Trump administration to block the policy. This decision impacts the discretion of immigration judges in cases involving asylum seekers and others seeking relief.
