Farmer's Branch Seeks Review in Supreme Court

After losing (badly) an en banc ruling in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the Farmers Branch Town Council will appeal a lower court ruling on an immigrtaion enforcement ordinance that, among other things, bans undocumented immigrants from renting in the city. In a 3-2 vote, the Council decided to continue what has been a seven-year battle to seek review in the U.S. Supreme Court.The Fifth Circuit struck down most of the immigrtaion ordinance as preempted by  by federal immigration law.
