周二,哥伦比亚特区巡回上诉法院的11名现任法官中有10人出席了近三小时的辩论,讨论司法部旨在停止由美国地区法官詹姆斯·博斯贝格去年发起的藐视法庭程序的诉求。此前,尽管博斯贝格下达了似乎要求将许多委内瑞拉男子扣留在美国境内的命令,该政府仍将数百名委内瑞拉人驱逐至萨尔瓦多,随后博斯贝格启动了该调查。
All but one of the 11 active judges on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals were on hand Tuesday for a nearly three-hour argument over the Justice Department’s bid to shut down contempt proceedings initiated last year by U.S. District Judge James Boasberg. He launched the probe after the administration deported hundreds of Venezuelans to El Salvador despite an order from Boasberg that appeared to require that many of the men be kept in U.S. custody.
