WASHINGTON \u2014 A federal judge lifted a stay Wednesday on the termination of temporary protections for hundreds of thousands of Haitians in order to comply with a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that cleared the way for the Trump administration to remove their legal status and open them up for deportations. <\/p>\n

The from U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes means that between 330,000 to 350,000 Haitians living in the United States have lost their Temporary Protected Status, even while legal arguments on a racial discrimination claim continue. <\/p>\n

Reyes\u2019 order, in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, brought the case into compliance with a 6-3 Supreme Court decision that Haitians and Syrians were not entitled to postponements of their status while litigation continues.<\/p>\n

The June Supreme Court ruling also said courts could not review the Homeland Security secretary\u2019s decision to end TPS.<\/p>\n

As part of President Donald Trump\u2019s mass deportation campaign, the administration has moved to revoke the legal status of millions of immigrants, including those with TPS, which is given to nationals who hail from countries deemed too dangerous to return to. <\/p>\n

The State Department has a \u201cdo not travel\u201d advisory for Haiti due to gang violence and kidnappings. <\/p>\n

Work authorization for Haitians expired last week, along with some driver\u2019s licenses for immigrants residing in Ohio and Florida, two states that have passed laws that tie eligibility for a driver\u2019s license to immigration status.<\/p>\n

Racial Animus<\/h2>\n

The remaining legal argument is whether the Trump administration\u2019s decision to end TPS for Haiti was based on racial animus, which would violate the U.S. Constitution\u2019s equal protection clause. <\/p>\n

On the campaign trail, then-presidential candidate Trump singled out Haitians living in Springfield, Ohio, claiming that their legal protections were illegitimate and falsely accusing them of eating house pets. <\/p>\n

Conservative Justice Samuel Alito, who wrote the majority decision in June, said that the Haitians\u2019 arguments that their equal protection claim that their protections were terminated on a racial animus were unlikely to prevail in court.<\/p>\n

Discovery Issues <\/h2>\n

The attorney who represented the Haitian TPS holders before the Supreme Court, Geoffrey Pipoly, told States Newsroom this week that he was not expecting Reyes to issue a new stay to halt the ending of protections. <\/p>\n

Pipoly and his team had not yet obtained enough evidence through discovery, a process that can take months, to try and secure another stay, he said. <\/p>\n

Pipoly said the documents produced by the Department of Justice so far were limited and heavily redacted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re just taking this exceptionally robust view of privilege in a way that I\u2019ve never seen a government defendant exert privileges before,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat\u2019s behind those redactions is going to influence the scope of our ongoing equal protection claim. But we\u2019re going to have to litigate what\u2019s behind those redactions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reyes in her Wednesday order also denied the administration\u2019s request to issue a stay on the discovery process and ordered both parties to submit a briefing schedule.<\/p>\n
