The Supreme Court early Saturday morning paused the deportation of immigrants potentially subject to the Alien Enemies Act, freezing action in a fast-developing case involving a group of immigrants in Texas who say the Trump administration was working to remove them.

Justice Samuel Alito said there was “dubious factual support” for granting an emergency appeal from the American Civil Liberties Union.
