The United States — Wisconsin Supreme Court issued a stay on July 6, 2026, pausing a case challenging the legality of immigration detainers (ICE requests for local jails to hold individuals for up to 48 hours) pending a federal appeal. The case was originally filed in September 2025 by the ACLU of Wisconsin on behalf of Voces de la Frontera against five county sheriffs. The sheriffs sought to move the case to federal court; a federal district judge remanded it back to state court, and the sheriffs appealed to the Seventh Circuit. The state Supreme Court granted the stay to avoid jurisdictional conflict, leaving the use of detainers unaffected for now.
