Court Filing on Immigration Enforcement Policy Challenge
Jan 9, 2026·Location: Eugene, Oregon

This is a legal filing in U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon in which plaintiffs M-J-M-A- and Victor Cruz Gamez seek a preliminary injunction against DHS and ICE officials. The case challenges what plaintiffs characterize as an 'Arrest First, Justify Later' policy regarding immigration enforcement operations. The filing argues this policy has caused extensive harm and requests expedited hearing and oral argument.
