Judge Says Federal Officials Must Personally Appear In Court For Violating Amnesty Injunction

A federal judge in the district court of South Texas has ordered top officials with the Department of Homeland Security including Secretary Jeh Johnson to appear in person in his court in Brownsville next month to show why they should not be held in contempt for violating an injunction issued against President Obamas executive amnesty order.
Andrew Hanen issued the rare order on Tuesday in the latest court filing for a lawsuit filed to halt President Obamas executive amnesty order. Obama announced the action on Nov. 20. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, then the states attorney general, filed the suit on Dec. 3.
Hanen called the Obama administrations response to his Feb. 16 injunction unacceptable and unprofessional. He also stated that he is shocked and surprised at the cavalier attitude the Government has taken towards it.
At issue is the federal governments failure to clear up why DHS issued 2,000 work permits to illegal aliens even after the injunction was in place. The Justice Department made that announcement in May, but DHS and its sub-agencies have not yet explained why applications for the permits were approved

Order them to appear and then order the US Marshals to place them under arrest for contempt of court and make sure you put them in with the general and mostly illegal prison population.

You have an idea there. I need to look at the US Marshals Service and the tension lines of organizational power. Hoping a Freeper with knowledge can chime in.

Contempt can be a very difficult matter to be charged with. The charging judge rules you guilty or he acquits. The same judge can sentence you if he rules you guilty. Worst of all you must serve the sentence unless you appeal for reversal of the conviction. Guess who hears that appeal. Yes, the judge who convicted you.
Contempt, a very bad matter to be charged with when the judge is serious. Judge Hanen (God bless him) is serious.
