A judge expressed some skepticism about an unprecedented lawsuit in which the Trump administration sued all 15 Maryland-based federal judges. At issue is a standing order that applies a temporary stay of deportation for two business days while cases involving immigrants facing immediate risk of removal are considered.

The lawsuit is the latest escalation of the Trump administration’s war on the judiciary, which has been marked by criticism of judges who have ruled against the government over President Donald Trump’s bold and aggressive use of executive power.
