A second U.S. judge on Tuesday blocked President Donald Trumps decision to end a program that protects immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children from deportation.
U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis in Brooklyn ruled that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, cannot end in March as planned, a victory for state attorneys general and immigrants who sued the Republican administration.
The plaintiffs had argued that the administration violated federal law by cutting off a program that hundreds of people relied on with little explanation.
In the ruling on Tuesday, Garaufis said the Trump administration could eventually rescind the DACA program. However, the reasons it gave last year for winding down the program were too arbitrary and could not stand, the judge said.
Garaufis ordered the government to process both initial requests for DACA status, as well as renewals, on the same terms as had been in place before the administration made its announcement last September.

There was never a eo from obama or trump. just policy.
It’s getting dangerous when lawless commands come down from the courts. This sort of nonsense could lead to places that no one sensible wants to go.
When these very Stoopid jurists show themselves to be BAD, why are they forever left on the bench?
after the supremes explain that this is crappola, why isn’t this biased dumbass removed?
or placed in stocks and stoned?
Agreed - the courts found it to be unconstitutional. Obamas order was and is illegal and, as such, cant be sustained.
Both judges rulings are tantamount to seditious actions - ordering the President to do an illegal thing.
The older a activist on the bench gets, the more willing they are to say stupid stuff that SCOTUS will overturn.
