The US Supreme Court today made it easier for President Donald Trump's administration to quickly expel illegal immigrants, including asylum seekers, with a limited judicial examination of the procedures, ensuring that he will win in an important case in the pre-election year.
Judges with 7 votes pro and 2 against ruling in favour of the Trump administration for his appeal of a lower court ruling that the farmer from Sri Lanka Vajayakumar Thurasigiam has the right to have a federal court to review the government's resolution on his asylum request.
The decision, written by conservative Judge Samuel Alito, says that limiting the judicial examination of his quick expulsion does not violate the main constitutional provisions protecting individual freedom.
The decision was supported by five conservative judges and two of the four liberals, Stephen Brayer and Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
San Francisco-based Court of Appeals San Francisco ruled in 2019 that under a provision suspension in the Constitution, which allows an individual to try to contest a government ban ruling in court, the latter should then be able to review the Tharissgiam case.
Administration Trump argues that immigrants seeking asylum in the US have no constitutional rights and that the Constitution has never in history mandated access to judicial reviews as required by Thurasigiam.
