Overview

• The Supreme Court extended its block on deportations of alleged Venezuelan gang members under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, citing due process violations.
• The Court ruled that providing detainees only 24 hours' notice without guidance on legal rights fails to meet constitutional standards.
• The case has been remanded to the Fifth Circuit to determine the process necessary to satisfy due process requirements for detainees.
• The justices did not address whether the Trump administration's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act is legally valid, leaving that question unresolved.
• Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas dissented, arguing the Court overstepped its authority in intervening at this stage.
