May 13, 2026 Denver, Colorado Colorado Newsline Court Order

The judge said ICE has not produced sufficient evidence of compliance with the order and warned of further sanctions, in a case that grew out of the Aurora-area enforcement surge that swept up legal residents and people with no criminal record.
