Immigrants Face Indefinite Detention; Supreme Court Likely To Decide
Jun 16, 2026

A Trump administration policy implemented in July 2025 threatens millions of immigrants with indefinite detention without bond if they crossed the border illegally. Appeals courts have split on the constitutionality of the policy, with three courts striking it down and two upholding it, creating conflicting legal standards across states. The Supreme Court is likely to resolve this circuit split and determine whether immigrants can be held indefinitely without bond hearings.
