February 25..... "-in other words. within two days. Had the Court complied with this request. it would have cut off the States right to file any kind of reply. If this Court had ruled according to the Governments requested schedule. it would have ruled without the Court or the States knowing that the Government had granted 108.081 applications pursuant to the revised DACA despite its multiple representations to the contrary. The attorneys were telling the Court they had not granted any of these applications and had stopped it while. in fact. over 108.000 applications had been issued. The court goes on to say: While this Court is skeptical that the Governments attorneys could have reasonably believed that the DACA amendments contained in the 2014 DHS Directive were not at issue prior to the injunction hearing on January 15. 2015. this Court finds it even less conceivable that the Government could have thought so after the January 15. 2015 hearing. given the interplay between the Court and counsel at that hearing. Regardless. by their own admission. the Governments lawyers knew about it at least as of February 17. 2015. Yet. they stood silent. Even worse. they urged this Court to rule before disclosing that the Government had already issued 108.081 threeyear renewals under the 2014 DACA amendments despite their statements to the contrary. The judge goes on to say: Another week passed after the Motion to Stay was filed and still the Government stood mute . . . Still. the Governments lawyers were silent . . .
