The case of the person Lander was escorting (his bid for asylum) was dismissed. The guy had been "stripped of all status" by the judge.

Here is an interview with Lander after he was released, which is where I got the above from.

Lander talks about due process not being followed. Is a judicial warrant required or is the due process that the guy gets kicked out of the country when his asylum claim fails?

Or is due process that he gets to appeal, in which case his status is not totally stripped and the judge is the one not following due process?

I am not asking what we wish was the case. Does anyone here know what the actual law is?

How does this compare to when judge Dugan helped an ICE target evade arrest by getting him to evacuate via the jury door.

Dugan and another judge entered the hallway and confronted the arrest team, telling one deportation officer that he needed a judicial warrant to make an arrest instead of an “administrative warrant,” the affidavit said.

She was arrested herself and indicted by a grand jury but is now claiming the same immunity which Trump is afforded. Would be hilarious if she succeeds. See her Wikipedia entry. Lander doesn't get to play the same "Trump card".

Additional footage of the arrest shows Lander telling immigration officials: “I’m not obstructing. I’m standing right here in the hallway. I asked to see the judicial warrant.

“You don‘t have the authority to arrest US citizens asking for a judicial warrant,” Lander can be heard saying.

The officials, two of whom were wearing masks, then pinned Lander to a wall and put him in handcuffs. It remains unclear why he was arrested.

I think it's very clear why he was arrested: ICE agents are fascist trash.
