Slate on the Al-Marri Case in the Fourth Circuit

By immigrationprof

Slate (here) has a fascinating article entitled “The Third Man:  The 4th Circuit does one more round on enemy combatants,” by Dahlia Lithwick on the Al-Marri case.  Classified as an “enemy combatant” by the Bush administration, he has been in federal custody for more than five years, 17 months of which he served without any legal contact.  The case is currently before the Fourth Circuit.
