When attorneys for Mahmoud Khalil enter the Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse in New York on Wednesday, they will have one mission in mind: to get their client, a Palestinian activist, released from an ICE facility in Louisiana and back to New York to be closer to legal counsel and family.

A federal court petition demanding Mahmoud Khalil’s release provides details of the Columbia University activist’s arrest. Trump says more arrests are to come.

A legal battle over a detained Columbia University student that has become a flashpoint of the Trump administration's immigration policy will play out in federal court, with the U.S. government indicating on Tuesday it would oppose the Palestinian activist's bid for release.

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals did not clarify why it halted the execution of David Wood in its order granting the stay.

Colorado is among roughly half the states that prohibit the practice of trying to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity through counseling.

More than 20 states restrict conversion therapy, which health providers say dangerously attempts to change young people’s gender identity or sexual orientation.

Kaley Chiles, a Colorado counselor, said the ban violates her First Amendment rights by "censoring" her conversations with clients.

A top Romanian court has rejected an appeal by far-right politician Calin Georgescu to lift a ban on his candidacy in the presidential rerun

Romania's top court upheld a decision to ban far-right candidate Calin Georgescu from standing in a presidential election rerun in May, it said on Tuesday, leaving his allies with four days to find a replacement.

The Romanian constitutional court on Tuesday upheld a ban preventing the far-right candidate Călin Georgescu from participating in the country’s presidential election. The ruling, which is final, backed a decision by Romania’s electoral authority on Sunday to throw out Georgescu’s bid to run in May’s vote after he allegedly breached election rules.
