Supreme Court to Review Trump Administration's Appeal on Detaining Immigrants Without Bond Hearings

The Supreme Court will hear an appeal from the Trump administration regarding the detention of noncitizens without bond hearings, questioning the constitutionality of such practices.
The case involves two green card holders, one convicted of assault and the other of child sexual abuse, who were detained for months without hearings during their deportation proceedings.
A federal appeals court ruled that prolonged detention without a hearing violates the Fifth Amendment's due process rights, requiring the government to prove a detainee poses a flight risk or danger to the community.
