Judge restricts immigration officers from making warrantless arrests in Southern California

A federal judge on Wednesday barred immigration enforcement officers from making warrantless arrests in Southern California. U.S. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong granted a preliminary injunction on Sept. 2, unsealed Wednesday, following a lawsuit by the ACLU of Southern California, Public Counsel, and Los Angeles immigrant advocacy groups. The ruling restricts immigration enforcement in the region.
