• Nationwide injunctions

    From Adam H. Kerman@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jun 28 20:53:05 2025
    Trump challenged three nationwide injunctions blocking enforcement of
    his executive order ending birthright citizenship.

    Most such injunctions will end although I think there are exceptions I
    don't understand. These can be filed as class actions but the Supreme
    Court earlier in John Roberts' tenure made it extremely difficult to
    file as a class, hence the nationwide injunctions.

    I'm a bit sympathetic to Trump's argument that plaintiffs seeking
    equitable relief will jurisdiction shop and the government must defend
    case after case after case.

    However, there should be nationwide injunctions allowed against the
    government without jurisdiction shopping. Last I looked, Washington
    remains the seat of government. Give that district court exclusive
    authority so the government might defend one case and not myriad cases. Congress would have to fix that.

    By the way, this affected the administrations of Democratic presidents
    too, so Republicans are losing plenty of political leverage.

    I don't agree with Amy Coney Barrett. If the president is about to do
    something unconstitutional, why shouldn't he be enjoined? Certainly
    there is court jurisdiction for that.

    The merits of the case were not at issue in this ruling and talking
    heads were saying it's unlikely that, if these cases continue in trial
    courts, Trump will win on the merits.

    As I said below, Republicans have lost such leverage.

    btw it's because Texas has those unique subdistricts to which a single
    judge is assigned. File in that subdistrict for equitable relief, you
    actually know the judge that will rule on your petition. File in the
    main district court, the judge would be randomly assigned.

    No other state has this.

    The whole point of the Court's ruling was to note that there simply is
    no power to make nation-wide rulings. If you can find it the
    Constitution, please quote it for us. Additionally, who cares if the
    case if filed in DC? That's no more relevant than a case filed in
    Ohio. If you don't like the laws, you can contact Congress which is
    what the remedy is. You don't use selected king judges to ignore the
    Supreme Court.

    So it appears that after a New Hampshire district court judge had his nationwide injunction against Trump's birthright citizenship EO overturned by SCOTUS, he has now certified a class action against it so that he can reach more than just the plaintiff with his ruling. My question is that, since Trump's EO is not retroactive and only applies to future children born here, how can there be anyone with standing to certify a class?

    Do "unborn future people" have rights under the Constitution? If so, then the abortion debate seems to be conclusively over.

    A hypothetical class was certified? That's a good point.

    I didn't realize the order wasn't retroactive. I was sure I'd be
    deported to Canadia and then back to Poland. I don't speak either
    language.

    So the judge is attempting to do an end run around the Supreme Court

    It includes all children in the class born after February 20. That's
    what I just heard from the lawyer running the case on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwfV8IGXaDA

    So it's not retroactive but it does include quite a few new born
    children.
