A Florida judge set a Dec. 16–17 hearing on a lawsuit alleging detainees at a remote immigration facility face barriers to legal access due to strict visit rules.
A federal judge in Florida has scheduled a Dec. 16–17 settlement conference in a civil rights lawsuit over legal access for detainees at the Dade-Collier Training and Transition Facility, a remote immigration detention center in the Everglades nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz.” The facility, built by Florida under Gov.
Ron DeSantis and operated by state and private contractors, faces allegations that requiring attorneys to schedule visits three days in advance hinders timely legal representation, leading to missed deadlines and transfers.
The lawsuit is one of three federal cases involving the site, including challenges over Florida’s authority to run a federal immigration facility and an environmental case allowing continued operation.
President Trump visited the site in July and praised it as a potential national model.
