"It is not fine, nor is it legal, Murphy wrote in his decision, adding that migrants could not be sent to an unfamiliar and potentially dangerous country without any legal recourse. He added that due process—the right to receive fair legal proceedings—is an essential component of the US Constitution."
"These are our laws, and it is with profound gratitude for the unbelievable luck of being born in the United States of America that this Court affirms these and our nation's bedrock principle: that no person' in this country may be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law."
"Murphy said in his ruling that the swift nature of the deportation obscures the details of each case, preventing courts from weighing whether each deportation is legal. The simple reality is that nobody knows the merits of any individual class member's claim because [administration officials] are withholding the predicate fact."
US District Judge Brian Murphy declared the Trump administration's policy of swift deportation to third countries illegal, stating migrants cannot be sent to unfamiliar and potentially dangerous countries without legal recourse. The judge emphasized that due process—the right to fair legal proceedings—is fundamental to the US Constitution. Murphy noted that the rapid deportation process prevents courts from examining individual cases to determine if deportations are lawful. The ruling represents another legal challenge to the administration's mass deportation campaign, which critics argue systematically neglects due process protections. Some deportees had been in the country legally through asylum and other immigration pathways, yet faced removal without proper legal review.
