Rules of the Supreme Court must give the Venezuelans more time to question the deportation according to the law on Alien Enemies

Washington – The Supreme Court on Friday has a blow to the Trump government's attempt to send Venezuelans who are gang members in a notorious prison in El Salvador, and said that the prisoners should have an appropriate opportunity to raise legal objections.

The 7-2 decision, which gives a request from a group of Venezuelans, issued an unusual arrangement of the judges in the early morning of April 19, which was the break for all the plans of the government to deport people in Northern Texas.

The judges in the latest not signed decision made the administration responsible because they only gave the prisoners around 24 hours to face legal challenges.

“Under these circumstances, which observe about 24 hours before the distance, there are no information on how the proper procedural rights can exercise in order to contest the rights that the distance certainly does not pass,” said the judgment.

However, the court came to the conclusion that the judges themselves, “far from the circumstances on site”, are not best placed in order to determine exactly which process should be followed.

Therefore, the court sent the case back to an appellate court to determine further procedures to determine which procedure the prisoners should receive.

The legal dispute depends on the attempt by the Trump government, the law on the alien enemies, a rarely used law of the war period of the 18th century, deporting Venezolans who claim officers of a gang called Tren de Aragua.

In the decision, the court did not determine the important question of whether the Trump administration can deport people in accordance with the law on alien enemies.

“To be clear, today we only decide that the prisoners are entitled to more knowledge than were given on April 18,” says the court ruling.

Two conservative judges, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, reflected. In a different statement, Alito wrote that the court gave no reasons at such an early stage of the legal dispute.

The Court of Justice, said Alito, “had no authority to make a relief”.

The attempt by the Trump government to summarize immigrants without giving them the chance, regardless of whether they are gang members or whether the law can even be applied to criminal organizations, is part of its hard immigration policy, which has returned significantly from both courts and political opponents.

Although the law on alien enemies can only be used at a time of “invasions or predatory ideas”, the government has argued that these conditions have been met because the gang is effectively an arm of the Venezuelan government, an assertion that has been strongly announced.

The April order of the court, which only left a detention center in Texas in the direction of an airport a few hours after a bus with Venezuelans, but then turned over, put on hold for the entire case, while the judges found out what the next steps should take.

In a decision of April 7, the Supreme Court had made it clear that all persons who would like to deport the government as part of the law on alien enemies must have the chance to question the decision on Habeas Corpus petitions.

There are several different cases of Alien Enemies Act that are negotiated across the country. It raises different problems as Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man who incorrectly deported the government to El Salvador and triggered another debate about the rights of the proper process.
