PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR CLASS CERTIFICATION

 

Therefore, Plaintiffs ask the Court to Grant Plaintiff’s Motion for Class Certification;
certify a Rule 23(b)(2) class of “all children who have been born or will be born in the United States on or after February 19, 2025, who are designated by Executive Order 14,160 to be ineligible for birthright citizenship, and their parents;” allow the complaint to proceed on a classwide basis; and appoint counsel from the Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection and the Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project as class counsel.

I read an analysis that birthright citizenship may still be judged by a lower federal court due to the wording of the SC.

The thing is that there are a lot of injunctions and stays bouncing around but very few cases have been presented on the merits. Federal cases need to have the lower court investigate and make a finding on the facts. Without that it does not move up for appeals. Injunctions and stays are pretrial motions.

You mean actual verifiable facts? Great concept but the GQP is allergic to them.

Why go to the trouble of posting facts, facts he requested? It will only be ignored because it doesn't suit his thinking.

Which is why i didn't respond.

Has the class action actually been certified?

It will be judged by the lower court and end up back in the Supreme Court.

From the 119 page SCOTUS decision -- (Justice) Alito concurrence:

<SKIP>
Lax enforcement of the requirements for third-party
standing and class certification would create a potentially
significant loophole to today’s decision. Federal courts
should thus be vigilant against such potential abuses of
these tools. 

Trump adversaries see silver linings in his ‘monumental’ Supreme Court win
Class actions and other legal strategies may allow Trump’s opponents to keep pursuing broad blocks against at least some of his policies.

06/27/2025

 

But Barrett’s 26-page opinion leaves a surprising degree of wiggle room. Yes, conventional nationwide injunctions are off the table, but Trump’s opponents say they see alternative routes to obtain effectively the same sweeping blocks of at least some policies that run afoul of the law and the Constitution.

 

The court appeared to leave open three specific alternatives: Restyle the legal challenges as class-action lawsuits; rely on state-led lawsuits to obtain broad judicial rulings; or challenge certain policies under a federal administrative law that authorizes courts to strike down the actions of executive branch agencies.

 

The viability of these three potential alternatives is not yet clear. But the court explicitly declined to rule them out. That led Justice Samuel Alito — who joined the majority opinion — to write a concurrence to raise concerns that the court was leaving loopholes that could undercut its main holding.

From May 13, 2025 SCOTUS Oral arguments birthright citizenship:

(Sauer) The government hasn't taken a position on that. Our position is not that class certification will necessarily be granted. Our position is that Rule 23 is how these sorts of claims should be channeled.

Justice Kavanaugh (42:44): And you think, I think you just said it's very possible that class certification may be granted?

General Sauer (42:50): It is possible.

Was it a quick finish after the decision was posted?  Did you have a smoke after?

The better question is if you had a heart attack or not.  Did you.

Why??   You think that a lone radical Judge appointed by Obama and Biden should be able to interfere with power of the President granted by the Constitution?  The vote should have been 9-0 but we have the three Leftist that are not there to do their job of interrupting the law.  They are there because they are radicals.

Read though some although not all comments. Appears to me that there are far too many not dealing with the nuances here. Bu, for the most part, I observe is is those leaning in support of trump. That is consistent, in that the studies have shown those are most inclined to want yes/no, right/wrong answers in life. The nuances, the critical thinking appears to complicated….. “Just do it” rather than thinking things through … which is why we have trump …

Another great victory, thanks supreme court, just shows common sense still sometimes prevails

Oh, good! So you’re saying that, in January 2029 (if not sooner), when President Newsom or President Ocasio-Cortez takes office, they can immediately issue an executive order that likewise flies in the face of the Constitution, say sending the military into US neighborhoods to go door to door and collect everyone’s guns, and the order takes immediate effect even while the matter works its gradual way through the lower courts, a process that could take years. Even if the courts ultimately rule against the order, by then it will be a fait accompli as the guns will have already been confiscated. Something to look forward to!
