U.S. District Judge Araceli Mart\u00ednez-Olgu\u00edn is continuing to block the government from cutting off funding for legal services for unaccompanied immigrant children.<\/p>\n

‘This injunction precludes cutting off access to congressionally appropriated funding for its duration,’ the court ordered.<\/p>\n

The move to grant the motion for a preliminary injunction came after the court had previously granted a temporary restraining order to the same effect.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on Wednesday but did not receive a response by the time of publication.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In 2023, then-Vice President Kamala Harris broke a tie vote in the U.S. Senate to confirm then-President Joe Biden’s nomination of Mart\u00ednez-Olgu\u00edn to serve as a U.S. district judge for the Northern District of California.<\/p>\n

The judge has previously worked as an attorney with the National Immigration Law Center, according to her biography on the court’s website.<\/p>\n

‘Working at the intersection of immigrant, economic, and racial justice, NILC deploys a multi-pronged strategy to secure lasting, transformational change,’ the organization notes on its website.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The preliminary injunction comes amid a challenge against the government’s move to cut off funding pertaining to legal aid for unaccompanied immigrant children.<\/p>\n

Various organizations lodged a legal challenge after the government partially terminated a contract with the Acacia Center for Justice, though Acacia itself is not a plaintiff.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

‘Until March 21, 2025, the Acacia Center for Justice (‘Acacia’) managed a network of 89 legal services organizations (including Plaintiffs) in 159 offices across the country providing representation to unaccompanied children through funding from HHS and ORR, under a contract between Acacia and DOI (contracting on behalf of HHS and ORR),’ a complaint asserted, referring to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), HHS’s Office of Refugee Resettlement and the Department of Interior.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration has been facing a string of legal challenges over a variety of issues during the first 100 days of the president’s second term in office.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
