The publication reminds that the Trump administration has stopped registration of thousands of foreign citizens since the beginning of Student and Exchange Vistor Information Systems (Sevis) since the beginning of this year.
This step was taken after the administration has stated that she was taking steps to combat foreign students with a criminal past.
Separately on Thursday Trump Administration reported Harvard University that it revokes the certification of the educational institution under the SEVIS program, which means that the institution cannot recruit foreign students.
However, the Bloomberg indicates, the orders of Vaita concerns individual students, not institutions.
The cancellation of registration in the SEVIS database actually means that students no longer have a legal status in the country, which gives them the risk of arrest, detention and even deportation.
In April, US authorities restored the abolished status of thousands of students, despite several litigation. White wrote that he was concerned that officials are trying to avoid judicial control, « sharply » changing the position to resolve individual cases in courts throughout the country.
« It is unclear what this game will end with the pajm, if not forbid the defendants to circumvent their own rules, » the Federal Judge wrote.
Opponents of the affairs of students who were subject to SEVIS argued that mass release was illegal and that in at least some cases the administration selected students who did not meet the standards for cancellation of their status.
White added that the students who filed a lawsuit would probably succeed, arguing that the cancellation of their status was « arbitrary and capricious. »
His resolution also prohibits the administration to arrest or detain students on the basis of cancer of SEVIS or « impose any adverse legal consequences » until the trial is proceeding.
