Civil Rights
Block on Trump's Asylum Ban Upheld by Supreme Court
In a habeas petition under the Indian Civil Rights Act, claiming that petitioners' disenrollment by members of the Pechanga Tribal Council was tantamount to an unlawful detention, denial of the petition is affirmed where the tribe did not detain petitioners within the meaning of the Act, and thus, the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction.
