Judge Sweeney says aliens must be given 21-day notice before deportation under Alien Enemies Act

What would you think the Supreme court meant when they told the lower court that these deportees need to be given reasonable notice, so to have time to refute the accusations if they are false, before being deported?

Should the Supreme Court have determine the reasonable time period given instead of passing it down to the lower courts to determine this "reasonable" amount of time with notice?
I’m not a fan of the SCOTUS making up shit on the fly, either.

By even if (for practical reasons) some “due process” is demanded, even the SCOTUS didn’t say 21 days.

If a “reasonable” amounts nt of time is required (which would any a matter I have major qualms about), it still isn’t up to SCOTUS to legislate that amount of time.
 
It says what I said.... A notice and reasonable amount of time must be given.... Each person may be different depending on their own circumstance and complications...the immigration courts are pretty jammed up.....and they have to find a lawyer to represent themselves and gather evidence if needed. It seems like 3 weeks is reasonable for all that to happen....maybe it could be done in 2 weeks or less on cases less complicated? Depends on court availability in that district....too!
Seems like they've all been on notice for some time now.

An arrest is adequate notice.

7 days detention is enough time to find a lawyer.
 
All Trump has to do is, you know, follow the law, like every other administration.

Now that's too funny! When Obama deported 3 million, do you really think all of them got their 'due process'? How about Bill Clinton who, when you count returns and removes, deported over 10 million?

The "process" which seems to be "due" to those restrained and scheduled for deportation seems to be a writ of habeas corpus, and it would be limited to determining whether or not the subject in question is in fact a foreign national, and not a citizen of the United States.

The fact is, under Section 2 of the Alien Enemies Act, those charged by “complaint” are entitled to the process outlined within Section 2.

What Judge Sweeney suspiciously avoids to note in her written opinion is, under Section 1 of the Enemies Alien Act, the President is delegated an extraordinary power totally separate from aliens charged by “complaint” under Section 2, and it includes an unobstructed discretionary deportation power to classify, apprehend, restrain, secure and remove, aliens deemed, as stated in the President’s Proclamation, to pose a threat to the general welfare of the United States and her citizens.

With respect to Section 1’s extraordinary power, the only process which may be due an alien when secured for deportation is a writ of habeas corpus, and it would be limited to determining whether or not the subject in question is in fact an alien and not a citizen of the United States.

Where did she pull the 21 Days from? The usual location?

Why not 20 or 22?
 
Most of them have already been in custody for at least 21 days. I'd argue that is notice.
There's been a lot of moving them from one state facility to another state....a recent court ruling says their due process request/habeas corpus has to be done/made in the State they are being held...

Looks like the admin is moving them out of their own state to other states and then other states again, to skirt the prisoner's ability to get counsel or representation in a due process procedure??? I dunno? :dunno:

The Constitution clearly states "When a political party is angry about losing an election, they are given the authority to twist the words of the Constitution to their liking, or just make things up".
