The U.S. Supreme Court on Saturday morning barred the Trump administration from carrying out any further deportations under the Alien Enemies Act (AEA).

The unsigned, terse, two-paragraph ruling came in the form of an order in a pending case, and is likely one of two messages from the nation’s high court to be sent over the weekend.

“There is before the Court an application on behalf of a putative class of detainees seeking an injunction against their removal under the Alien Enemies Act,” the order reads. “The matter is currently pending before the Fifth Circuit. Upon action by the Fifth Circuit, the Solicitor General is invited to file a response to the application before this Court as soon as possible. The Government is directed not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of this Court.”

At least five justices voted to grant the stay, which comes in a case originally filed in the Northern District of Texas on Wednesday.
