The Trump administration, which flooded Minnesota with immigration agents this year, argued that policies limiting cooperation with ICE were unconstitutional.
The federal judge identified 210 orders issued in 143 cases in Minnesota in which he said Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials had not complied with court orders.
A federal judge said ICE had disobeyed more judicial directives this month than “some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”
A federal judge cited a list of 96 orders he said Immigration and Customs Enforcement had ignored in more than 70 cases since the agency launched its immigration crackdown in Minnesota.
In a brief ruling, the Minnesota judge wrote that unusual order was necessary because “the extent of ICE’s violation of court orders is likewise extraordinary.”
