Immigration and Customs Enforcement has quietly rescinded guidance that advised ICE agents conducting courthouse raids to take steps to avoid violating state and local laws while carrying out civil immigration arrests.

The policy change could lead to an escalation in enforcement tactics and legal disputes.

The change in guidance comes amid sweeping ICE raids across the US , some sparking protests and heated confrontations with citizens.

The City of New York on Monday sued Lyons and ICE, as well as DHS and Noem , over the Bronx student’s arrest in an effort to effect his release.

The law does not, however, restrict ICE from making arrests in federal courthouses.
