News Release from Jewell Stewart & Pratt – February 9, 2017
On February 9, 2017, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied the White House’s motion to re-instate the travel ban in Executive Order 13769.
The United States District Court for the Western District of Washington’s temporary restraining order, prohibiting the federal government from enforcing the travel ban on a nationwide basis, is still in place. All U.S. land and air ports of entry are prohibited from enforcing the Executive Order until further orders from the court.
