The federal judge presiding over Mahmoud Khalil’s case ruled that the Trump administration, for now, cannot deport or detain the Columbia University activist based on a determination by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
The judge’s order will not take effect until Friday, allowing the government time to appeal.
Rubio has cited an obscure provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 to justify Khalil’s removal from the U.S., saying that he poses a national security risk.
