SDNY COURTHOUSE,
March 6 – A man who
fled Honduras seeking
protection from persecution
has sued the US and its
Department of Homeland
Security under the FTCA and
the Alien Tort Statute.
On March
5, U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Paul A. Engelmayer held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
As the
case, back to its complaint,
is about the Trump
Administration's family
separation policy, one wonders
if it will be mooted out by
the change of Administration
and presumbly of policies.
There are many amici
in the case; what might they
work on next?
The case is
D.J.C.V. et al v. United
States of America, 20-cv-5747
(Engelmayer)
