Federal Judges in Minnesota Threaten Contempt Charges Against ICE and DOJ Over Order Violations
Multiple federal judges in Minnesota have expressed their frustration and anger towards the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for repeatedly failing to comply with court orders regarding immigration cases. The chief judge has warned that continued non-compliance could result in criminal contempt charges against officials. A Trump-appointed judge has also held government attorneys in contempt over unlawful actions related to detainee transfers and other immigration matters. As tensions escalate, the courts are taking serious measures to ensure that federal officials adhere to judicial rulings, demanding accountability and compliance to avoid further legal consequences.
