A series of legal actions initiated by immigration judges based in California against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), primarily alleging wrongful termination, often tied to policy shifts under the Trump administration's immigration enforcement priorities.
Notably exemplified by the recent Concord case where a judge sued over her probationary dismissal, highlighting tensions between judicial independence and executive oversight in immigration courts.
