Virginia Files Motion to Intervene in Aziz v. Trump

Today, the Commonwealth of Virginia announced that it is intervening in the litigation the Legal Aid Justice Center and Mayer Brown LLP have brought on behalf of the Aziz bothers, and others similarly situated, who are lawful permanent residents or immigrant visa holders and who were denied entry to the United States over the past weekend on the basis of the recently-issued Executive Order.

«Virginia’s decision to intervene provides further evidence of the serious constitutional and statutory flaws in the immigration Executive Order,» said Mayer Brown partner Andrew Pincus.

«Virginia’s intervention in our lawsuit confirms the enormous practical repercussions of the Executive Order,» added Mayer Brown partner Paul Hughes.

«Virginia has chosen to intervene in order to protect the rights of all Virginia residents, especially members of its universities,» said Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg of the Legal Aid Justice Center.
