Judge blocks Trump administration long-term from arresting Columbia student Yunseo Chung

  • A Manhattan federal judge issued a preliminary injunction on Thursday blocking the Trump administration from arresting Columbia student Yunseo Chung in New York City.
  • The injunction followed Chung's habeas corpus petition challenging what she called unlawful government retaliation after failed attempts to arrest her since her March 5 protest at Barnard College.
  • Chung, a lawful permanent resident and advocate defending Palestinians, faced a revoked immigration status amid harsher deportation efforts targeting international students protesting Israel's Gaza war.
  • Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald said arresting Chung would cause "irreparable harm" and called the government's approach "disturbing," while attorney Ramzi Kassem criticized plans to move her to distant detention.
  • The injunction allows Chung to continue her studies and work as the court considers constitutional questions, while the government may start deportation proceedings by serving notices without arresting her.
