Immigrant advocates sued Thursday to preemptively block President Trump’s threatened new round-up of thousands of undocumented families this weekend.
The White House insists the raids — the same ones that Trump scrapped last month — will target immigrant families that have already been given deportation orders.
But the ACLU says many of them have never had a day in court due to massive bureaucratic bungling.
“The Trump administration’s threats against immigrants run roughshod over basic fairness and due process,” said Donna Lieberman, executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union. “We will fight to ensure no one faces this kind of peril without having their case considered in court.”
The suit was filed in Manhattan federal court on behalf of refugees from Central Americans, many of whom say they have tried without success to get hearings.
It demands that anyone detained in the planned raids be granted a hearing with a judge before being deported.

Stop telegraphing your punches!
If I were the Judge:
Counselor are you Questioning the Authority of this Court by Challenging the Ajudicated Disposition that has already taken place, where All parties had a chance to participate??
Contempt of Court, Remanded 90 Days, $10,000 Fine, and I am sending a Referral to the BAR for Permanent Disbarment.
Illegal criminals suing to be declared non-criminals. With the help of the ACLU vultures, of course. As if these criminals have rights as U.S. citizens.
Run them all back across the border and BUILD THE FENCE.
Immigrants don’t have anything to worry about, Dave, you bozo.
“ACLU overstepping and has no standing. These people already had a day in court, and didn’t show up for it. “
They won’t have any trouble finding a judge that will block this.
We’re at a point where nothing short of a revolution will stop this madness.
President Trump has no intention of deporting the 10’s of millions of wetbacks. Neither does he have intentions on building the wall. It is all a politicians trick. SEND ME MONEY TO FIGHT FOR YOU, while backroom dealing with Democrats. Is Hillary in chains? Answer is NO. When that happens, let me know. Then and only then will I listen to anything else that comes from the Oval office.
FINAL DEPORTATION ORDERS!
Do court orders mean anything, or not?
Its not so much about rounding up immigrants as it is about deporting people who had their day in court and lost.
these aren’t immigrants, they are invaders and should be treated as such. Either deport them or imprison them.
The only thing I can think of is Trump made this announcement so the Dems would block it in court.... once again, to say the Dems block him on everything. It was never going to entail a mass deportation, just a massive campaign issue.
Most failed to show up for court and a judgment of deportation was entered against them. They had their day in court and decided not to participate.
The courts ordered them to be deported.
All arguments are done and over with.
Those arguments were supposed to be heard during the court hearing they willingly chose not to attend.
Now they must participate in the deportation.
Head em up, move em out, and yes, use cattle trailers if necessary.
Like it or not lefty this is the rule of law in action as the constitution intended.
Wow... Concern troll much? Or are you new to it?
I thought Obama said I can stay!
I thought I lived in the country of California not the US?
I thought I was living in a sanctary?
Sounds like someone is running scared ...
“They won’t have any trouble finding a judge that will block this.
We’re at a point where nothing short of a revolution will stop this madness.”
Or Trump simply ignoring judges who overstep their authority.
“Or Trump simply ignoring judges who overstep their authority.”
Riiiight, just like he has done countless times in the past.
“Stop telegraphing your punches!”
Like what difference does it make if you do or dont?
These judges have ordered people flown back before.
Not enough people seem to have noticed that . . . not yet.
