A federal judge has dismissed a central claim in a lawsuit regarding detainee rights at the 'Alligator Alcatraz' facility in Florida. The dismissed claim alleged that detainees' constitutional rights were violated due to the lack of an on-site immigration court. The judge found the claim moot after the Trump administration designated another ICE facility's immigration court to oversee these cases.

However, the lawsuit will continue on the issue of whether detainees are being denied confidential, in-person legal consultations. Separately, another lawsuit challenges the facility on environmental grounds, with Native American and environmental groups alleging harm to the Everglades and wildlife. Florida maintains that the state-run facility is not subject to federal environmental laws, and a ruling on this matter is expected soon.

El juez desestima parte de la demanda contra "Alligator Alcatraz"

Se une a mí ahora el periodista de inmigración y política de CBS News Camilo Montoya-Gavez. Camilo, explícame el razonamiento del juez al desestimar uno de los elementos clave en este caso. caso. Buenos días, Vlad. Como usted ha subrayado, uno de los argumentos clave en esta demanda en relación con el debido proceso para detenidos en esta instalación de Florida Alligator Alcatraz en los Everglades se centró en la la cuestión de si sus derechos constitucionales estaban siendo violados porque el gobierno de Trump no había establecido un tribunal de inmigración dentro de esta instalación para adjudicar y revisar las demandas de las personas que quieren desafiar la deportación. Normalmente en los centros de detención del ICE, que por supuesto son supervisados por el gobierno federal, Vlad, hay un tribunal de inmigración dentro de esos sitios que puede revisar los casos de las personas detenidos que, de nuevo, quieren luchar contra su deportación por motivos legales. Pero esta es una instalación estatal supervisada por Florida que no tiene ese sistema de inmigración. tribunal. Pero el juez consideró que esa demanda es ahora discutible porque durante el fin de semana la administración Trump dijo que designaría un tribunal de inmigración en otro centro de detención supervisado por el ICE en Florida como el tribunal de inmigración que supervisará los casos de las personas que están detenidas en esta instalación estatal en los Everglades conocida como Alligator Alcatraz. Es importante destacar que otra parte de la demanda seguirá adelante, y es en torno a si o los derechos constitucionales de los detenidos no están siendo violados porque no están recibiendo acceso a periodos confidenciales de consulta legal en persona y acceso a esa consulta, Vlad. Así que esa parte de la demanda continuará. Entonces, ¿qué sucede a continuación en este caso, y qué pasa con las preocupaciones ambientales que son se plantean? Esa es una excelente pregunta, Vlad, porque este es sólo uno de los dos principales desafíos legales contra esta instalación de Florida. También hay una demanda en Florida por problemas medioambientales, y un nativo americano tribu y un grupo de grupos ecologistas dicen que esta instalación está perjudicando y poniendo en peligro el medio ambiente en los Everglades y la vida silvestre, y también está eludiendo federal leyes que realmente requieren revisiones ambientales antes de cualquier proyecto de construcción importante. Florida, por otro lado, dice que debido a que se trata de una instalación estatal, no está sujeto a las leyes ambientales federales. El juez de este caso podría emitir un fallo sobre esa demanda tan pronto como esta semana, Vlad. Wow. Muy bien, Camilo Montoya-Galvez, gracias.
