<h1>Federal judge halts immigration stops and arrests in seven counties citing Fourth and Fifth Amendment violations</h1> A federal judge ordered the administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties after advocacy groups filed a lawsuit alleging systematic targeting of individuals based on race. The plaintiffs included detained immigrants and citizens who were held despite proper identification. The court found violations of Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights during enforcement operations at various locations including car washes, businesses, and farms. The judge also barred restrictions on attorney access at a detention facility. Government officials denied racial targeting claims, stating operations were highly targeted with proper procedures. The ruling affects multiple counties amid widespread community protests over increased immigration enforcement activities.
