Federal Judge Cancels Contempt Hearing for ICE Director

MINNEAPOLIS, MN - A federal court hearing scheduled for the ICE director was canceled by a Minnesota chief federal judge. The hearing had been required due to alleged contempt of court from the agency.

According to reports, Judge Patrick Schiltz stated that “ICE is not a law unto itself.” This statement reflects his opinion on the matter.

The cancellation comes after an immigrant’s release from detention. The incident led to concerns about ICE’s actions in the courtroom.

Details regarding the number of court orders allegedly violated by ICE are available. However, no further information has been provided.
