Attys React To High Court Tie In Immigration Actions Case

In the article, “Attys React To High Court Tie In Immigration Actions Case,” featured in Law360, attorneys discuss the significance of the decision made in U.S. v. Texas, the case over President Barack Obama's executive actions on immigration, resulting in the block on the deferred deportation policies staying in place.

Cynthia Yarbrough said, “As a result of the Supreme Court’s decision, the executive action remains subject to an injunction blocking its implementation. Today’s per curiam decision did not address the merits of the case and the case will return to the Texas district court for further proceedings. It is possible that the court will revisit this case in the future once a full complement of nine justices have been restored to the bench. Because the constitutionality of the executive action was not addressed by the court, a future president could implement similar executive actions. Additionally, Congress could also bring forth legislation that would address further immigration reforms.”
