DC Appeals Court Halts Contempt Probe Linked to Trump Deportation Flights
TL;DR Summary
A divided DC Circuit Court of Appeals ordered US District Judge James Boasberg to end his criminal contempt inquiry into Trump administration officials who defied orders to halt deportations under a wartime authority, ruling the probe intruded on executive branch deliberations and constituted an abuse of discretion; one dissenting judge (Michelle Childs) argued the record supported contempt, but the appellate decision effectively ends the investigation.
