Ninth Circuit Court Stays Deportations Based on Obama's Directive
 

the Ninth Circuit court of appeals is apparently taking orders directly from the Obama administration now

Before: William C. Canby, Jr., Diarmuid F. O’Scannlain, and Raymond C. Fisher, Circuit Judges. Order;

Dissent by Judge O’Scannlain David Aranda Rodriguez has filed a petition for rehearing en banc in this consolidated matter. Rodriguez has had a longterm presence in the United States and has two United States citizen daughters, one of whom suffers from asthma. He does not appear to have any criminal convictions. In light of ICE Director John Morton’s June 17, 2011 memo regarding prosecutorial discretion, and the November 17, 2011 follow-up memo providing guidance to ICE Attorneys, the government shall advise the court by March 19, 2012, whether the government intends to exercise prosecutorial discretion in this case and, if so, the effect, if any, of the exercise of such discretion on any action to be taken by this court with regard to Petitioner’s pending petition for rehearing. O’SCANNLAIN, Circuit Judge, dissenting: I respectfully dissent. "[T]he Executive Branch has exclusive authority and absolute discretion to decide whether to prosecute a case." United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683, 693 (1974). Judicial supervision of such decisions is sharply limited by the separation of powers and is guided by "the recognition that the decision to prosecute is particularly ill-suited to judicial review." Wayte v. United States, 470 U.S. 598, 607 (1985). We have generally respected these limitations on our authority and competence. See, e.g., United States v. Banuelos-Rodgriguez, 215 F.3d 969, 977 (9th Cir. 2000) (en banc) (collecting cases). But not today. Today the majority instructs the Attorney General to tell us whether he will prosecute a specific case notwithstanding his brief defending the Board of Immigration Appeals’s decision denying the petitioner relief. We have only the slimmest authority even to review the exercise of prosecutorial discretion, see, e.g., Banuelos-Rodgriguez, 215 F.3d at 976-77; we certainly lack authority to demand a preemptive peek into whether and when (and no doubt, before long, why) the executive branch will exercise such discretion. Cf. Wayte, 470 U.S. at 607 ("Examining the basis of a prosecution . . . threatens to chill law enforcement by subjecting the prosecutor’s motives and decisionmaking to outside inquiry, and may undermine prosecutorial effectiveness by revealing the Government’s enforcement policy."). The memoranda cited by the majority offer only internal guidance within the executive branch and squarely disclaim any suggestion that they might create any rights or benefits enforceable by the judiciary. What is more, the petitioner never even asked us for the audacious ruling we issue today. The majority thus needlessly catapults this court into a realm of decisionmaking from which it is constitutionally walled off. I cannot join that effort and rather would decide the petition for rehearing on the basis of the record already before us.

Repeat.
 

I'll just repeat: -----------------------------------

Federal Circuit Court Judge Robert Dierker - in his book " The tyranny of Tolerance" spelled out the problems with the court system and the liberal, secular progressives.

Everyone makes up his/her own rules. The Constitution isn't an impediment. It's "just a piece of paper" - "it's a living document" - "it was created by old,dead white men" - it's old and out of date", etc., etc, .......................

Federal Immigration and Customs Laws don't matter. Mayors and Town Councils just make up their own rules.

I lived overseas for a long time in some real Banana Republics. Sadly the USA is apparently trying to mimic all of everything that is wrong in those Bananas !!!!!

Mr O is handing them a ballot on their way into our country, already marked with his name! Wish he'd go back to Kenya and fix that country.
