On Tuesday, the Supreme Court granted the Trump administration’s request to pause a district-court order barring the government from removing noncitizens to countries that are not identified in their removal orders without first providing the noncitizens an opportunity to raise their concerns about facing persecution or torture there. The court also announced that it would hear argument in December on, among other things, the legality of third-country removals and whether the district court had the authority to hear the dispute and offer class-wide relief.
