US District Court Judge Sara Ellis said she will issue a sweeping injunction limiting the #UseOfForce by federal #immigration agents in the #Chicago area after she found a litany of violations were committed in recent weeks.

Ellis on Thursday painstakingly detailed instances across the Chicago area in which #BorderPatrol agents used force against residents in violation of her #TRO.

There’s still a chance #Bovino could wind up spending more time in Ellis’ courtroom. The appeals court asked for additional briefing on the issue by the end of business Thursday.

Bovino was also due to appear at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse on Thursday morning for a deposition behind closed doors. Ellis has said it could go as long as 5 hours.

Ellis noted she’s been “receiving emails from the public.” She shared them with lawyers in the suit that prompted #Bovino’s appearance in her courtroom this week & a #TRO earlier this month.

“I do want to note that, certainly, any decision that I made to monitor the effectiveness & compliance of the [TRO] that I entered was based solely on the evidence submitted in this case. It was not, as the government asserts, based on anything outside of the record,”Ellis said.

A federal judge in San Francisco on Tuesday indefinitely barred the #Trump administration from firing #FederalWorkers during the government #shutdown.

US District Judge Susan Illston granted a preliminary injunction [ #PI] that bars the firings while a lawsuit challenging them plays out. She had previously issued a temporary restraining order [ #TRO] against the job cuts that was set to expire Wednesday.

Judge Perry has handed a draft of her written #CourtOrder to both sides & left the bench. She's letting them look at it until she returns.

We still don't know the exact details of her order. She said she's granting the #TRO "in part," which indicates some part of it is also being denied. Stay tuned.

Frimpong issued the temporary restraining order [#TRO] halting agents from using race or #ethnicity, #language, presence at a particular #location such as a car wash or tow yard, or type of #work, to carry out stops or arrests, as none of those factors alone can establish "reasonable suspicion" of illegality.
