The Supreme Court ruling places limitations on the ban, forcing the Trump administration to make revisions to comport with the decision, and opening the door to possible further litigation\u00a0regarding whether or not the revisions actually satisfy those limitations.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>per curiam<\/em>\u00a0order in<em>\u00a0Donald Trump v. the International Refugee Assistance Project\u00a0<\/em>and <em>Donald Trump v. Hawaii\u00a0<\/em>both partially stays the preliminary injunction\u00a0placed on the Executive Order by a district court judge in Hawaii (and upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals) and grants a writ of certiorari to review the case and make a final ruling on the order&#8217;s ultimate legality. The qualified stay of the injunction is careful to explain that it is not a decision on the ultimate legality of the executive order. The order explains that an injunction is intended to provide &#8220;interim relief&#8221; to the affected parties to the suits; in this case,\u00a0a plaintiff going by John Doe who is a permanent resident in the U.S. and whose Iranian wife is seeking entry to the U.S., Dr. Ismail Elshikh, an American citizen whose Syrian mother-in-law is seeking entry into this country, and the state of Hawaii, whose standing is\u00a0derived in part from the fact that students who had been accepted to the University of Hawaii would be adversely impacted by the travel ban.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0order thus seeks to provide interim injunctive relief to the affected parties, but\u00a0limits this relief to those &#8220;foreign nationals with a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States&#8221;. The Court reasons that the injunction previously issued and affirmed, which bar enforcement of the Executive Order &#8220;against foreign nationals abroad who have no connection to the United States at all&#8221; provided relief to harm not imparted on the plaintiffs, and are thus too broad.<\/p>\n<p>In response to this ruling, the State Department has taken to defining what constitutes a &#8220;bona fide relationship&#8221; to the U.S.\u00a0The relatives deemed sufficiently close family members to exempt people from the travel ban, whether as visitors or refugees, are: a parent, spouse, child, an adult son or daughter, son-in-law, daughter-in-law or sibling, as well as their stepfamily counterparts.\u00a0The administration\u2019s new rules do not allow grandparents, grandchildren, uncles, aunts, cousins and fiances.<\/p>\n<p>Lawyers for the state of Hawaii have once again petitioned the court to injoin the government from enforcing the ban, reasoning that the government has taken far too narrow a definition of what constitutes a &#8220;bona fide relationship&#8221;. \u201cThe Government does not have discretion to ignore the Court\u2019s injunction as it sees fit,\u201d the lawyers wrote. \u201cThe State of Hawaii is entitled to the enforcement of the injunction that it has successfully defended, in large part, up to the Supreme Court \u2014 one that protects the State\u2019s residents and their loved ones from an illegal and unconstitutional Executive Order.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court order can be found here, in its entirety:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/opinions\/16pdf\/16-1436_l6hc.pdf\">https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/opinions\/16pdf\/16-1436_l6hc.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A Washington Post article explaining the government&#8217;s revisions to the ban in response to the Court order is linked to here:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/national-security\/travel-ban-to-take-effect-as-state-department-defines-close-family\/2017\/06\/29\/03eb8a8e-eba6-4749-9fa2-79117be89884_story.html\">https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/national-security\/travel-ban-to-take-effect-as-state-department-defines-close-family\/2017\/06\/29\/03eb8a8e-eba6-4749-9fa2-79117be89884_story.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 29th, 2017, after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling partially lifted the stay on the executive action, the Trump administration enacted a revised, limited version of its controversial travel ban into effect.
