Federal Judge Places Temporary Injunction on Sections of the Georgia Immigration Law


U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Thrash granted a temporary injunction on certain parts of the new Georgia Immigration Law on Monday June 27, 2011. Judge Thrash declared the criminal aspect of the law did not coincide with federal law, especially the provisions empowering police to investigate the immigration status of certain suspects and those prohibiting the transport, harboring and enticing of illegal aliens. The E-Verify provisions were not blocked and will go into effect on July 1, 2011.
