Twice more the administrations assertions were rejected by the courts. Following this outcome. Doherty requested deportation to the Republic of Ireland. Three times the Government made its case. claiming in the end that Dohertys return to the United Kingdom was essential to further the administrations foreign policy objectives. Three times. the Justice Departments case for having Doherty deported only to the United Kingdom was rejected by the Justice Departments own immigration officials. I believe that the Justice Department is entitled to take a position in a case of this nature. if it thinks it must do so in support of a broader Government interest or policy. I may not agree with the policy in the Doherty case. for example. but the Justice Department is entitled to its day in court.
