The United States Supreme Court has temporarily allowed the administration of President Donald Trump to continue deportations of migrants to third countries. The ruling permits the government to send people to states with which they have no demonstrated ties, even before a final assessment of the legality of this policy. idnes.cz ↗

The Court granted the emergency request filed by the US Department of Justice. Migrants can therefore continue to be deported without a prior hearing during which they could challenge the decision or present their objections. ORF ↗

The Supreme Court's decision temporarily suspended the effect of a lower court's ruling. That court had previously deemed such deportation practice unlawful, as it did not provide affected persons with sufficient opportunity for defense before removal to a third country. The Guardian ↗

The dispute concerns the broader policy of the Trump administration, which seeks to speed up deportations of migrants even to states with which they have no personal or legal relationship. Critics from human rights organizations warn that such a procedure could affect people without a proper review of their situation. Deutschlandfunk ↗

The Supreme Court has not yet ruled on whether the policy of deportations to third countries is in compliance with legal regulations. The substantive hearing of the case, followed by a ruling, is expected in December. Until it concludes, the decision on deportations remains provisionally in effect.
