Trump v. CASA, Inc.
Decided June 27, 2025. Amy Coney Barrett delivered the opinion of the Court.
Docket 24A884 · 606 U.S. 831 (2025) · Cited 83 times
Holding
Because universal injunctions likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has granted to federal courts, the Court grants the Government’s applications for a partial stay of the injunctions entered below regarding the implementation and enforcement of President Trump’s Executive Order No. 14160, but only to the extent that the injunctions are broader than necessary to provide complete relief to each plaintiff with standing to sue.
