Judge to Outline Steps in AEA Contempt Inquiry

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg is set to address contempt proceedings regarding the Trump administration’s deportation of hundreds of men to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act in March. Despite a temporary restraining order, deportations proceeded, prompting allegations of contempt against the administration. Boasberg’s inquiry follows a recent appeals court ruling that allows him to continue his fact-finding. Additionally, attorneys for the deported individuals are seeking a preliminary injunction to challenge their AEA designation.
