Supreme Court Throws Out Travel Ban Ruling

Supreme Court Throws Out Travel Ban Ruling

WASHINGTON, Oct 10 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday threw out an appeals court ruling that struck down President Donald Trump’s previous temporary travel ban targeting several Muslim-majority nations countries that has now expired.

The court acted in one of two cases pending involving a case brought by the American Civil Liberties Union, which had sued to stop the ban contained in a March executive order.

The court did not act on a separate challenge brought by the state of Hawaii, which the court had also agreed to hear. That case also features a challenge to a separate 120-day refugee ban, which has not yet expired. (Reporting by Lawrence Hurley; Editing by Leslie Adler)
