A Manhattan federal judge on Wednesday ordered a “comprehensive” accounting of how the Department of Homeland Security came to make false statements that caused the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office to retract arguments it made in defense of a policy to exclude New York from federal programs intended to expedite international travel.

The ruling, from U.S. District Judge Jesse M. Furman of the Southern District of New York, approved, for now, a “limited inquiry” into “deeply troubling revelations” that that the Trump administration had misled the court in defending a lawsuit from New York Attorney General Letitia James.
