A federal court on Friday temporarily halted the Obama administration policy of detaining mothers and children seeking asylum in the United States.
The American Civil Liberties Union had filed a lawsuit in December against the so-called no-release policy by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency on behalf of mothers and children who said they had fled violence in Central America.
ICE, a part of the Department of Homeland Security, had implemented the policy during a spike of illegal entries into the United States during the summer.
