Trump v. CASA, Inc.
Holding
Because universal injunctions likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has granted to federal courts, the court grants the government’s applications for a partial stay of the injunctions entered below regarding the implementation and enforcement of the Trump administration’s Jan. 20 executive order ending birthright citizenship, but only to the extent that the injunctions are broader than necessary to provide complete relief to each plaintiff with standing to sue.

Mar 14, 2025Response to application (24A884) requested by The Chief Justice, due by 4 p.m. (EDT), on April 4, 2025.
