This evening, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court’s decision to temporarily prevent the government from enforcing a travel ban implemented via executive order on January 27, 2017. The travel ban has not been in effect since a federal district court granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) against it on February 3. The Trump administration now has the option of appealing this decision to the U.S. Supreme Court. For the time being, however, the TRO remains in place, meaning that the travel ban still cannot be enforced.

More details on this executive order are available on the MurthyDotCom Current Administration & Immigration page.
