National Association of Immigration Judges v. Margolin
Issue
Whether the Civil Service Reform Act impliedly strips federal district courts of jurisdiction over a pre-enforcement challenge to a broad prior restraint on the speech of federal employees, even where: (a) the challenge could not be raised at all under the CSRA’s review scheme; (b) the CSRA’s review scheme would not guarantee judicial review of the challenge in any event, because the availability of judicial review would turn entirely on agency officials’ unfettered and unreviewable discretion; and (c) any judicial review would come too late to remedy the “here-and-now” injuries caused by the prior restraint.
