• GOVERNMENT DENIES PROLONGING COURT FIGHT OVER IMMIGRATION
  • 18_1-March

    Attorneys for the government in the United States are denying claims that the government is delaying its response to a ruling brought about by a federal judge that was issued last month. The ruling was issued last month against the President of the country, who planned to make millions of illegal immigrants eligible for lawful status and get access to work permits.

    It was said that there was no need for the courts to rush as it was felt that there was no need for the courts to rush as there was no urgency in the approach that the federal government had taken to the litigation.

    Lawyers are saying that far from taking a unhurried approach the government was moving as promptly as possible and was persistent in its obligation under federal court rules to seek relief from the district court in the first instance.

    The President had pledged last month to be as “aggressive as he could” in the legal challenge to override Justice Hanen’s court ruling on the executive action.
