The U.S. Department of Justice told a federal judge it had mistakenly relied on a May 2025 ICE memo to justify arrests at immigration courts, acknowledging the memo "does not and has never applied to civil immigration enforcement actions in or near" immigration courts.

The U.S. Department of Justice told a federal judge it had mistakenly relied on a May 2025 ICE memo to justify arrests at immigration courts, acknowledging the memo "does not and has never applied to civil immigration enforcement actions in or near" immigration courts.

The admission came in a letter to U.S. District Judge P. Kevin Castel, filed by Jay Clayton, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, as part of a lawsuit brought by civil rights groups challenging the arrest policy.

DOJ prosecutors said they had received approval from ICE counsel before filing every brief and making oral arguments in the case, and blamed the error on an ICE attorney who informed them the guidance applied to immigration courthouse arrests.

The New York Civil Liberties Union and ACLU, representing the plaintiffs, said the error's implications were "far-reaching," noting that immigrants had been detained "in facilities hundreds of miles away" following courthouse arrests.

DHS said in a statement there is "no change in policy" and that it would continue to arrest immigrants at immigration courts, while Judge Castel ordered the government to preserve all records and communications related to the 2025 ICE memo.

Rep. Dan Goldman demanded that officials responsible for misstating ICE's authority be terminated and requested data on how many arrests had been conducted at immigration courts since the memo was issued, noting over 1,000 people in New York alone had been detained.
