A federal judge in Texas denied a Justice Department request Tuesday to lift his temporary hold on President Obama's executive action preventing the deportation of millions of illegal immigrants.....
......The first of Obama's orders--to expand a program that protects young immigrants from deportation if they were brought to the U.S. illegally as children--had been set to take effect Feb. 18. The other major part would extend deportation protections to parents of U.S. citizens and permanent residents who have been in the country for several years. That provision was slated to begin on May 19.
Hanen issued his initial injunction believing that neither of those orders had taken effect. About a month later, the Justice Department confirmed that more than 108,000 people had already received three-year reprieves from deportation and work permits, but DOJ attorneys insisted the moves were made under 2012 guidelines that weren't blocked by the injunction. The DOJ apologized for any confusion, but Hanen seemed unconvinced during a hearing last month and threatened to sanction the attorneys.
He wrote Tuesday that while the federal government had been "misleading" on the subject, he would not immediately apply sanctions against the government,.....
"The parties' arguments should be decided on their relative merits according to the law,not clouded by outside allegations that may or may not bear on the ultimate issues in this lawsuit, "Hanen wrote.
In a separate order Hanen, told the government it has until April 21 to file to the court and plaintiffs detailed information about its March advisory about the 108,000 three-year reprieves.
The order asks the government to produce "any and all drafts" of the advisory, including information on when each draft was written,edited or revised. Hanen also asked for a list of each person who knew about the advisory.

We need a Hanen in every federal court in the nation, and on the Supreme Court.
President Andrew Jackson reportedly responded: “John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!”
Bttt
Just saying...............
What the hell good is this so called hold doing,they are flying illegal children into the country at tax payer expense by the thousands now! What the hell is going on!
The world is in for some very, very bad times.
Everyone can feel it coming on like a freight train. No one knows what that feel in the air is. But something BIG is going to happen, soon.
True. And Obama’s pals in the Gov are teaching these illegals to unionize. Unreal. I say dump a few out of a helicopter at 100-200 feet AGL over the border area where other illegals can see and then deport all.
bump
Worth repeating........
Well now I think the DOJ is crying to the 5th Circuit on appeal about it. They won’t stop until they get this stay overturned.
Another swing and a miss?
Another all talk and no action?
What is going to take for someone... anyone... to hold somebody in government accountable for something?
This is just another person kicking another can down another road.
Sanction someone. Throw someone in jail. Then I'll believe we're serious about this.

No.
The judge is giving them a few more days to answer who, what, why, where and when.
Until then, it's just more talk. We already know the Obama MO. Talk to stall, stall, stall, all the while using the time to entrench past the point of no return.

There you have it!
Federal Judge ignores the will of the people and the Constitution.
Our corrupted courts system is the enemy of the people and apparently supports the jihad more Muslims bring to America.
Texas, and other brave states, need to practice disobedience to these judges. They, along with the chief criminal in the White Hut, need to be removed from office.
They’re hell bent on killing us.
There you have it!

Sorry, Judge.
