On December 19, 2018, a Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia granted relief in the form of a permanent injunction to twelve plaintiffs, who were given negative credible fear determinations during the expedited removal process due to Matter of A-B- and the ensuing policy memorandum. Judge Sullivan’s decision was largely devoted to two issues: (1) the plaintiffs’ motion to consider evidence outside the existing record and (2) the motion for summary judgment.
