Federal judge strikes down Farmers Branch ordinance against renting to illegal immigrants | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News | Latest News
"For the second time, a federal judge has declared unconstitutional a Farmers Branch ordinance banning illegal immigrants from renting in the city....
U.S. District Judge Jane Boyle of Dallas ruled Wednesday that the ordinance was an attempt to enforce U.S. immigration laws – something the judge said only the federal government can do. The judge also issued a permanent injunction to stop Farmers Branch from enforcing Ordinance 2952....
Mayor Tim O'Hare, the driving force behind the ordinances, said he wants to appeal.'The American people are tired of judges legislating from the bench," he said. "This decision is not unexpected but welcomed, because it allows us to get closer to this ordinance becoming reality.'
But O'Hare said the City Council would have to vote on whether to continue a fight that has cost the city nearly $3.2 million since September 2006. And the city may need to spend an additional $623,000 in legal fees in the year ahead, city finance director Charles Cox said Wednesday."
The attempt by cities to go after illegals thru local ordinances such as Dallas 2952 will be fought by deep-pocketed immigrant rights lawyers/immigrant law attorneys, ACLU,by odd alliance of deep pocketed labor unions & business interests such as apt landlords/big exploiting business/US Chambers,ect. This issue will be joined by several other local anti-immigration ordinances being contested in other cities and will go all way to Supreme Court.

What i am seeing more and more is that to thwart the public will the Hispanic pro-illegal activists and their ACLU allies are turning to the courts to overturn local ordinances, even state/fed rulings against illegal aliens. In process they will BK small cities thru bogus illegal immigration rights lawsuits dressed up and perverted into 'civil rights' lawsuits.
