The U.S. Justice Department on Thursday filed a lawsuit challenging a New York state law that blocks immigration officials from arresting individuals at or near New York courthouses. The complaint, filed in federal court in Albany, New York, alleges the law frustrates federal immigration enforcement at a venue - state courthouses - where authorities can safely make arrests. U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi said New York was employing policies similar to those used by California to prevent "illegal aliens from apprehension."[1]

"This latest lawsuit in a series of sanctuary city litigation underscores the Department of Justice’s commitment to keeping Americans safe and aggressively enforcing the law," she said in a statement. A spokesperson for New York Attorney General Letitia James said the state will defend the law, arguing it "ensures every New Yorker can access our courts and pursue justice without fear."[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
