If so, there's no one from those seven countries outside the US any longer with a valid visa. Meaning, the TRO would not cover anyone.*
* = Other than the specific, named plaintiffs in the case (due to other relief in the TRO).
That seems like an aggressive reading. Visas are only invalidated by virtue of the EO itself!
I don't think so. This is the only national order in the CD Cal. TRO:pic.twitter.com/i5DoQHmTPc
I think, ultimately, if the EO is struck down, then, yes, the State action would be invalid, but there was no finding of unconst ...
... of the exec order itself in the CA TRO, just an order not to do remove, detain, or block entry — to those w valid immig visas.
Right, TRO doesn't nullify EO. But I think gov't would be hard-pressed to take position that TRO applies to no one. We'll see!
I'm saying, there's no one with a valid visa from those 7 countries, per State, so no one who could come here now.
Of course it's stupid & would lose assuming the underlying skepticism of the EO itself remains, but, practically, rn, the TRO has...
... no clear immediate effects beyond the plaintiffs.
