On Feb. 26, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the Department of Justice’s petition for writ of certiorari in a Ninth Circuit DACA Case. The Court took the unusual step of encouraging the federal court to act stating “It is assumed the Court of Appeals will proceed expeditiously to decide the case.” This action means that DACA participants can continue to renew their DACA benefits up to and beyond the March 5 deadline as the lower court’s enforcement stay remains in effect.
