SDNY COURTHOUSE, August 17 – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been sued for non-response to a Freedom of Information Act request for its handbooks on human smuggling, counter-terrorism and its Narcotics and Transnational Organized Crime Rewards Program.
On August 17, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Jed S. Rakoff held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
ICE not surprisingly says it has acted in good faith. Judge Rakoff set a briefing schedule, including time for a reply and then sought to choose a time for argument.
October 19 he was told he has both a criminal and a civil jury trial and something else at 4 pm.
He quipped, What are you guys doing at midnight? Finally September 29 at 4 pm was arrived at.
The case is Brennan Center For Justice v. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, 21-cv-2443 (Rakoff)
