A federal judge ordered the release of 32 immigrants detained during ICE's "Operation Midway Blitz" last fall, finding that arrests were made without proper warrants or probable cause in violation of the Castañon Nava consent decree, which governs ICE and CBP actions in Illinois and five other Midwestern states. U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Cummings made individualized assessments of 53 arrests, raising concerns about the validity of so-called "blank" I-200 warrants used in the field, citing missing information, boilerplate language contradicting arrest records, and questions about document authenticity. Cummings also rebuked DHS for defying his earlier order to circulate the consent decree's warrantless arrest policy nationwide, after the agency limited it to only the Chicago regional office while directing other offices to follow a separate ICE policy with reduced requirements. As of Wednesday, at least 11 of those ordered released had already been deported, while 11 others remained detained.

The Trump administration has been detaining hundreds of immigrant children and their parents at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas, with ICE booking over 3,800 children into detention in the first nine months of the administration. Many children are being held well beyond the 20-day legal limit established by a longstanding court order, with some exceeding 100 days, and unlike during prior use of the facility, many families now detained have lived in the U.S. for several years. Parents have alleged deficient medical and mental health care inside Dilley, including withheld medications and inadequate treatment for sick infants, though ICE and facility operator CoreCivic deny these claims and defend the quality of care provided. The increased family detention comes after the Trump administration reversed the Biden-era policy of phasing out such detention and simultaneously reduced oversight of facility conditions.
