Supreme Court allows Muslim man's lawsuit against FBI for no-fly list placement to proceed.
The Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that a Muslim man's lawsuit against the FBI for his inclusion on the no-fly list can proceed, rejecting the government's argument that the case is moot. Yonas Fikre, a US citizen, claimed his placement on the list was unlawful and filed a lawsuit in 2015. The government later removed him from the list and argued that his lawsuit was void. However, the Supreme Court, in an opinion authored by Justice Neil Gorsuch, rejected this argument, allowing Fikre's case to move forward.
