A federal judge on Saturday denied a request from Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul for a halt to federal immigration enforcement in the city as part of Operation Metro Surge.
The ruling comes weeks after she had sided against the Trump administration in an order restricting federal officers’ crowd-control tactics in Minneapolis.
“At this stage, the Court makes no final determination on the merits of any claims asserted by Plaintiffs. Nor does the Court offer any opinion about the wisdom of Operation Metro Surge,” Judge Katherine Menendez, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, wrote. “And the legality of many of the specific actions taken by federal agents during the operation is not before the Court in this case.”
