South Carolina Lawsuit on Hold, Awaits Outcome in Arizona v. United States

A federal district court has stayed the proceedings in the U.S. government’s challenge to the South Carolina immigration enforcement law. In December, the court enjoined several key provisions of the law. The case will await the Supreme Court’s decision in Arizona v. United States. The court of appeals has denied efforts to delay the resolution of the appeals in the cases challenging the Georgia and Alabama immigration enforcement laws.
