flag A federal judge will decide if ICE violates detainees' rights by denying lawyers access before out-of-state transfers.

flag A federal judge in Oregon is set to rule on a lawsuit alleging ICE routinely denies attorneys access to detainees before transferring them out of state, violating due process rights. flag Plaintiffs, including immigration lawyers and rights groups, say the practice—especially amid a 1,400% surge in arrests since October—forces detainees to sign removal orders without legal counsel. flag They argue the restrictions, particularly at facilities in Eugene, Portland, and Medford, undermine fair treatment. flag ICE claims it complies with a 12-hour transfer rule and cites safety and operational concerns. flag The judge has not yet announced a decision.
