WASHINGTON (AP) — A judge says a deportation fight originally bound for South Sudan won’t be completing the trip right away even after a divided Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to start swiftly deporting immigrants to countries they aren’t from. Judge Brian Murphy found Monday that an order remains in force for those immigrants because the Supreme Court only halted his previous, broader order. The Department of Homeland Security, though, suggested other deportations to third countries could begin again soon. The Supreme Court’s conservative majority halted a decision from Murphy that requires immigrants get a chance to challenge any deportations to third countries where they might be in serious danger.
