The Supreme Court on Tuesday formally scrapped Hawaii's challenge to President Trump's 120-day refugee ban after the executive order expired.
Trump's March executive order halted decisions on refugee applications for 120 days. Trump changed the effective date of the order implementing the refugee ban as the legal fight over the executive order moved forward in the courts.
The Supreme Court previously eliminated oral arguments over the travel ban litigation from its calendar and ruled Trump v. International Refugee Assistance Project moot after the 90-day travel ban expired last month.
Following the expiration of Trump's refugee ban on Tuesday, the high court ruled Hawaii v. Trump moot, too. The justices also vacated lower court rulings over the refugee ban and sent the case back to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
