(MCCLATCHY) WASHINGTON — A federal court looks to be on the verge of delivering a significant blow to the Obama administration policy of detaining mothers and children who say they’re fleeing violence in their home countries, according to attorneys representing the detained families.
U.S. District Judge Dolly Gee in California distributed a 22-page tentative ruling Friday concluding the administration policy violates parts of an 18-year-old court settlement regarding the detention of migrant children, according to memos that outline the tentative ruling and were obtained by McClatchy.
The tentative ruling was distributed to attorneys but not officially filed, to allow the two sides 30 days to negotiate an agreement. But it states the children and their mothers cannot be held in unlicensed secure facilities such as those in the towns of Karnes City and Dilley, Texas, according to the memos.
