A panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday against the third repeat of President Trump's travel ban, stating that it is against federal law.
"We conclude that the issuance by the President of the Proclamation still exceeds the scope of his delegated authority," the court stated in its ruling.
The most recent version of the ban prohibits people from eight countries, six of whom are predominantly Muslim, from coming to the United States. UU.
However, the San Francisco Court of Appeals said the Trump administration could continue to prevent people from the Middle East and North Africa from entering the United States. UU. If you do not have a "good faith" relationship with someone in the United States UU.
The court stated that the decision would be suspended pending a review by the Supreme Court.
In the ruling, the court stated that "indefinite suspensions of proclamation constitute discrimination of nationality in issuing immigration visas" and that discriminates against travelers and immigrants along the lines of Trump's previous travel bans. .
The Supreme Court decided earlier this month that it would allow the latest travel ban to come into effect as the litigation continued.
An appeal court based in Richmond, Virginia, must rule on the ban before the Supreme Court reviews the issue.
The Trump administration has pushed for a travel ban since January, which states that it is necessary to safeguard national security. But every iteration of the ban has clashed with legal disputes, which has led the administration to issue increasingly limited orders to deal with legal problems.
