Geee Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Daily Caller The Supreme Court unanimously upheld a federal statute that forbids encouraging illegal aliens to remain in the U.S. unlawfully in a decision Thursday. The Supreme Court not only vacated the appeals court’s decision, but also criticized the judges for “drastically” straying from judicial norms. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a liberal stalwart of the bench, wrote the high court’s opinion. “[T]he appeals panel departed so drastically from the principle of party presentation as to constitute an abuse of discretion,” Ginsburg wrote, and later stated that “a court is not hidebound by the precise arguments of counsel, but the Ninth Circuit’s radical transformation of this case goes well beyond the pale. The Supreme Court justices voided an earlier decision by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which had ruled that a federal anti-harboring statute was unconstitutional on the grounds that it violated the First Amendment by restricting free speech. The rulingby the nation’s highest court Thursday upholds the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
