Latinos Seek Emergency Federal Court Action
From The Tulsa World Online ~ The National Coalition of Latino Clergy has filed an emergency motion in Tulsa federal court asking for an expedited hearing in the lawsuit filed Monday in which it and other plaintiffs are challenging House Bill 1804, a strict new state law against illegal immigration.
In the motion filed electronically after business hours on Thursday, the plaintiffs asked for a hearing as soon as possible on its motion for an preliminary injunction. Such an injunction would prevent enforcement of the law, which is scheduled to go into effect by Nov. 1. In their motion, the plaintiffs claim they will suffer irreparable injury unless the court issues an injunction before November 1st.
