AI Overview

The recent appeals court decisions regarding Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino have focused on court orders related to ongoing immigration operations and use of force, rather than criminal convictions.

An appeals court temporarily blocked a judge's order that required Bovino to appear in court daily to provide briefings on "Operation Midway Blitz" activities in Chicago.

However, the appeals court did not overturn the other directives issued by the district judge, Sara Ellis, as part of her temporary restraining order. These continuing requirements for Bovino and his agents included:
  • Wearing and using body cameras.
  • Wearing conspicuous identification/badges on their uniforms.
  • Banning certain riot control techniques (such as the proactive use of tear gas) against peaceful protesters and journalists unless there is an immediate safety threat.
  • Producing use-of-force reports for agents involved in the operation.
  • Sitting for a deposition with lawyers from both sides (though the judge initially changed this to in-court testimony).

The order for the daily briefings was paused pending further review by the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
