Federal judge orders Mamdani administration to turn over names of Bronx shelter residents with serious criminal histories to ICE

U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan ordered the Mamdani administration on Friday, Nov. 6, to comply with an ICE subpoena to hand-over the names and birth dates of shelter residents in the Bronx city-run migrant shelter who might be subject to deportation.

Judge Kaplan has given the city two weeks to comply with the plan, under which the city and ICE can submit a proposed plan to the court-appointed “special master” who will review the shelter records and oversee the transfer of data.
