Second US appeals court open to blocking Trump's birthright citizenship order

UNITED STATES, AUG 01 – The Boston-based First US Circuit Court of Appeals is poised to declare Trump's birthright citizenship order unconstitutional following a similar ruling by the 9th Circuit last month.

  • A three-judge panel of the First US Circuit Court of Appeals appeared ready on Friday to deem the executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship unlawful, the second court this summer to do so.
  • On Friday, a federal appeals court appeared ready to rule that President Donald Trump's order seeking to end birthright citizenship is unlawful, following injunctions from lower courts including a nationwide one.
  • First Circuit judges, appointed by Democratic presidents, probed technical arguments but appeared to support the principle that 'everybody born here is a citizen,' Judge Julie Rikelman said.
  • The First Circuit judges did not set a date for their decision, and any ruling could be appealed to the American Supreme Court.
  • Amid the First Circuit review, the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals sided against Trump last month, as the Supreme Court recently restricted universal injunctions.
