Obama Admin Violates Federal Court Injunction – Again


 

Judge Andrew Hanen out of Brownsville, Texas, issued an injunction this past February that temporarily stopped Obama’s executive amnesty plan after Texas and 25 other stated filed a federal lawsuit in December 2014 to stop the administration’s program for illegals.

Obama actually stated at the time that he would violate the injunction. Then in April, Hanen rebuked federal lawyers and DHS because of misrepresentations made and ordered documents be produced to reveal everything that had transpired. The judge even warned the feds not to destroy evidence.

On July 7th, Judge Hanen ordered top Obama administration officials, including DHS Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, to appear in his court on August 19th to demonstrate why they shouldn’t be held in contempt of court.

The government’s latest report, and supplemental report, were filed just a few weeks before the July 31st compliance date.

Lawyers for the federal government have been working on the reports, called an “advisory,” to update the judge.

When compiling the report, the government found yet another failure by the federal government to follow the federal judge’s orders. The government has had to scurry in an attempt to avoid further wrath by the judge.

A government contractor mailed approximately 500 cards extending work and stay authorizations.

The executive amnesty plan would expand from two to three years, work authorizations and stays in the U.S.

The cards had been mailed prior to the injunction but were returned because of a problem with the addresses. The contractor updated the addresses and then mailed them out again – this time after the court’s injunction.

The government assures the Court that it is taking immediate actions to address the new violations.

The government says they have attempted to remedy this new problem by sending letters to these individuals demanding that they return the cards.

In his July order, Judge Hanen warned the government if violations which had been committed as of that time had not been corrected, and corrected by the end of the month, “the only logical conclusion is that the Government needs a stronger motivation to comply with lawful orders.”
