A federal judge in Massachusetts said Wednesday that the Trump administration violated a court order by attempting to deport several migrants to South Sudan and ordered U.S. officials to interview them to determine whether they have a reasonable fear of harm if they are deported to the conflict-ridden nation.
Judge Brian Murphy previously ruled the Trump administration could not deport people to third countries without giving them a “meaningful” opportunity to protest their deportation.
