Трампын засаг захиргаа 1996 онд байгуулагдсан ч өнөөг хүртэл үйл ажиллагаа явуулаагүй байсан “Гадаадын террористуудыг албадан гаргах шүүх”-д анхны өргөдлөө гаргаж, үйл ажиллагааг нь идэвхжүүллээ.
АНУ-ын Хууль зүйн яам өнгөрсөн лхагва гарагт нэр нь нууцлагдсан нэгэн иргэнийг улс орноос албадан гаргах хүсэлтийг тус шүүхэд ирүүлжээ. Таван шүүгчийн бүрэлдэхүүнтэй тус шүүхийн тэргүүн шүүгч Жоан Эриксен пүрэв гарагт анхны сонсголыг зохион байгуулсан байна. Шүүхээс Засгийн газрын гаргасан нотлох баримтууд болон хуулийн заалтуудын уялдаа холбоог тодруулах шаардлагатай гэж үзэн, нэмэлт мэдээлэл ирүүлэхийг Хууль зүйн яаманд үүрэг болгожээ.
1996 оны “Терроризмтой тэмцэх болон цаазаар авах ялыг үр дүнтэй хэрэгжүүлэх тухай хууль”-ийн дагуу байгуулагдсан энэхүү шүүх нь террорист үйл ажиллагаанд оролцсон, дэмжсэн эсвэл тийм бүлэгт харьяалагддаг гадаадын иргэдийг албадан гаргах асуудлыг шийдвэрлэх эрхтэй. Өмнө нь тус шүүх ямар нэгэн өргөдөл хүлээж аваагүй, сонсгол хийж байгаагүй гэж Холбооны шүүхийн төвөөс мэдээлсэн байна.
Трампын засаг захиргаа сүүлийн нэг жилийн хугацаанд албадан гаргах ажиллагааг эрчимжүүлж, үүндээ 1798 оны “Дайсан гадаадын иргэдийн тухай хууль”-ийг ашиглаж буй юм. Үүнтэй холбоотойгоор Вашингтоны шүүгч Жеймс Боасберг үндэсний аюулгүй байдалтай холбоотой албадан гаргах асуудлыг шийдвэрлэхэд энэхүү тусгай шүүх нь илүү тохиромжтой хэрэгсэл болохыг өмнөх сонсголын үеэр тэмдэглэж байжээ.

For the first time in its nearly three-decade existence, a secretive US court designed to handle the deportation of “alien terrorists” has received a petition, filed by the Trump administration.
The Alien Terrorist Removal Court, established in 1996, had remained dormant until this past Wednesday, when the Justice Department submitted an application seeking the removal of an individual whose identity remains undisclosed.
Chief Judge Joan Ericksen, who presides over the five-member court, confirmed that a hearing was held on Thursday.

In a written response, Judge Ericksen noted the court had “questions about the nexus that the government alleges between the actions of the respondent and the specific sections and subsections it invokes with respect to those actions.”

She added, “The answers persuaded the Court that the Government could benefit from the opportunity for more thoughtful consideration,” and directed the Justice Department to provide additional information by Wednesday.
The court’s authority originates from the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996. This legislation permits the attorney general to file sealed applications for the deportation of suspected “alien terrorists.”

If an application is granted, a public hearing must follow, where the government bears the burden of proving the individual meets the definition. Federal law defines an “alien terrorist” as someone who has “engaged in a terrorist activity,” endorsed such activities, or belongs to a group encouraging them.
Until last week, the court, comprised of five judges selected by Chief Justice John Roberts, had never received an application or conducted a hearing, according to a summary on the Federal Judicial Center website.

The Trump administration has aggressively pursued deportations, notably invoking the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to remove Venezuelan migrants who officials accuse of being part of a terrorist gang.
During a hearing last year concerning that act, Washington judge James Boasberg suggested the Alien Terrorist Removal Court would be the appropriate venue for national security-based deportation requests.

“In fact, Congress has an answer for us, doesn’t it? Because they created the Alien Terrorist Removal Court,” he stated. “So if there’s a national security concern with having these hearings…you can always go to the ATRC, which would be a first, but that’s what it’s there for, right?”
The petition was initially reported by the independent news site Court Watch.
