WASHINGTON: The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday granted a request by President Donald Trump`s administration to block the immediate release of documents concerning his decision to end a program that shielded from deportation hundreds of thousands of young adults dubbed "Dreamers" brought into the country illegally as children.
The justices put on hold an order by a federal judge in San Francisco for the administration to turn over the internal documents as part of several lawsuits he is overseeing, including one led by California`s Democratic attorney general, challenging the legality of Trump`s September decision.
The court`s action will remain in effect until the justices decide whether to permanently block U.S. District Judge William Alsup`s order in the lawsuits regarding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program created by Trump`s Democratic predecessor Barack Obama. Under Trump`s action, the protections offered by DACA disappear in March.
