The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Department of State v. Muñoz on April 23.   The case will allow for the review of the doctrine of consular nonreviewability.  In Kerry v. Din (2015), a splintered Court left much undecided on the issue.   ‘

In Department of State v. Muñoz, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit concluded that the U.S. government failed to provide the constitutionally required notice within a reasonable time period following the denial of the visa application and thus was not entitled to judgment based on the doctrine of consular nonreviewability.

SCOTUSBlog has collected the briefs and other materials for the case.
