The U.S. Supreme Court dismissed a legal challenge to
President Donald Trump’s travel ban late Tuesday, concluding that the
ban’s expiration in September effectively ended the controversy.
The development is a partial victory for the administration,
which urged the high court to dismiss the case after the ban expired
Sept. 24. Per the terms of the order, a ban on migrant entry from six
countries with high instances of terror was applied for a 90-day period.
In an order issued just after 7:30 p.m., the justices
remanded the case to the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the
Richmond-based appeals court which upheld an injunction staying the
ban’s enforcement. The justices ordered the court to dismiss the case as
moot, and directed the 4th Circuit to vacate — or wipe out — its ruling
finding the order unlawful.
