While the challenge to Obama administration’s plan to delay deportations of certain illegal immigrants awaits a decision in the U.S. Supreme Court, some immigration groups want the justices, however they decide, to keep the case from returning to the original district court judge.

Last week, the judge accused U.S. Department of Justice lawyers of making misrepresentations in his court as they defended the plan in the case United States v. Texas. In addition to imposing a broad ethics training requirement on department lawyers based in Washington, Hanen ordered the department to provide by June 10 a list of the more than 100,000 immigrants who applied for delayed deportations under the expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy between November 2014 and March 2015.
