This case challenges the Trump Adminstration's actions diminishing legal resources for noncitizens facing deportation. On January 31, 2025, the Amica Center for Immigrant Rights, American Gateways, Estrella del Paso, Florence Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project, Immigration Services and Legal Advocacy, National Immigrant Justice Center, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, Pennsylvania Immigration Resource Center, and the Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The plaintiffs sued the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), the Executive Office for Immigration Review, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Acting Attorney General of the United States. 

Represented by both nonprofit and private legal counsel, Plaintiffs sought declaratory and injunctive relief, specifically asking the court to declare the Defendants’ actions unlawful and to enjoin the Defendants from carrying out their plans. Plaintiffs claimed that the Defendants illegally and arbitrarily ended programs that provide legal orientation and representation to noncitizens, violating the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), the Appropriations Clause, and the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

The plaintiffs–nonprofit organizations that receive funding to administer Legal Orientation Programs (LOP), Family Group Legal Orientation Programs (FGLOP), the Counsel for Children Initiative (CCI), and Immigration Court Helpdesks (ICH)–argued that the termination of these programs would restrict their access to unrepresented noncitizens in detention and prevent them from informing noncitizens of their legal rights. The plaintiffs also asserted that the defendants' actions violated their First Amendment rights by denying them funding and access to detention facilities and immigration courthouses, and that these actions violated the Performance-Based National Detention Standards. Plaintiffs claimed that the Executive Order No. 14159 "Protecting the American People Against Invasion" was used as a pretext to halt the Programs. They requested the court to enjoin the Defendants from terminating the Programs, to order the defendants to allow the plaintiffs access to immigration courts and detention facilities, and to cease removing educational materials. 

On the same day, January 31, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, asking the court to expedite consideration and grant immediate provisional relief to preserve the status quo pending a final judgment in this case. (On February 4, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a notice of supplemental authority, informing the court that the United States District Courts for the District of Rhode Island and the District of Washington, D.C. had granted Temporary Restraining Orders in cases with similar issues as this one. They offered these decisions as persuasive authority.) 

On February 10, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a joint status report. It explained that the Defendants had indicated that the stop-work order had been rescinded as to the programs discussed in this litigation. Plaintiffs confirmed that they had resumed access to ICE detention facilities and their Program-related activities. They reserved their right to renew their motion for an expedited and emergency temporary restraining order if necessary, but at this point, moved forward with the briefing schedule for the preliminary injunction. 

The case is ongoing as of February 11, 2025.
