Dissenting Opinion

Justice O’Connok, with whom Justice Souter joins,

dissenting.

I would deny the Government’s application to lift the injunction to the extent it applies to refugees who are and who remain screened in. Insofar as it prevents repatriation of those the Government determines may not remain, I would lift the injunction.
