The U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday ruled against President Donald Trump’s Executive Order, which temporarily banned citizens from seven countries into the U.S.
The three-member panel, in its unanimous ruling, upheld a Feb. 3 decision by a U.S. District Court judge, James Robart, in Seattle that stopped the ban nationwide.
Judges Michelle Friedland, William Canby Jr, and Richard Clifton – said in a 29-page unanimous ruling; “We hold that the government has not shown a likelihood of success on the merits of its appeal, nor has it shown that failure to enter a stay would cause irreparable injury, and we, therefore, deny its emergency motion for a stay.
“The American people have an interest in free flow of travel, in avoiding separation of families, and in freedom from discrimination,”
