DOJ petitions Supreme Court to review 4th Circuit NAIJ ruling

The Department of Justice filed a petition for certiorari on January 12, 2024 asking the Supreme Court to review the 4th Circuit's dismissal of NAIJ's speech-restriction lawsuit. DOJ's petition argued the CSRA indeed stripped federal district courts of jurisdiction over NAIJ's claims, defending the circuit court ruling on the merits. The case was docketed as Margolin v. NAIJ, with EOIR Director David Margolin named as the lead government respondent. NAIJ cross-petitioned, challenging both the jurisdictional dismissal and the underlying speech restrictions.
