Plaintiffs filed for an emergency restraining order in D.C. District Court last month to temporarily block the administration’s use of the law – a request granted by Boasberg, who agreed that the deportations would likely cause imminent and "irreparable" harm to the affected migrants under the proposed timeline.
A federal appeals court also upheld that ruling, which put Boasberg squarely in the crosshairs of the Trump administration.
The 5-4 Supreme Court ruling established due process protections and the right to judicial review for migrants subject to deportation under the law.
Justices said in particular that migrants have the right to appear in court before they are deported, and must receive proper notice of any planned removal proceedings from the U.S. under the Alien Enemies Act.
Detainees "must receive notice after the date of this order that they are subject to removal under the Act," justices wrote in the majority. "The notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief in the proper venue before such removal occurs."
