Summary Judgment in Fremont Neb. Upholds Some Provisions of Immigration Law

"Fremont can enforce employment provisions of a controversial immigration ordinance approved by its residents in 2010, but a federal judge said on Monday that the city cannot prevent those without legal immigration status from living there. A 37-page summary judgment from U.S. District Court Judge Laurie Smith Camp is the latest development in an immigration dispute that began with proposed employment and housing sanctions and a city council defeat of those proposed sanctions in 2008," the Columbus Telegram says.

"Both sides portrayed the outcome as more victory than defeat. Kris Kobach, attorney for the city, said his clients prevailed on the employment issue and on parts of the housing issue. Kobach noted that participation by local employers in a federal E-Verify system to electronically screen the legal status of job applicants now is compulsory in Fremont, even though it's voluntary elsewhere."
