ICE Arrests Lawsuit
(Eugene, OR) -- Attorneys at the Innovation Law Lab have filed a motion in federal court to stop warrantless immigration arrests in Oregon by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. One plaintiff in the case, Victor Cruz Gamez, is a construction worker who was driving home when he was stopped by ICE. They called him illegal and detained him without a warrant. He's lived in the U.S. for 25 years and has lawful work authorization. ICE held him for three weeks and pressured him to self-deport. The motion asks the court to stop ICE's policy of "arrest first, justify later." It seeks class-action status.
