Description

I. Background On May 23, 1973, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) instituted an ""augmented"" program in the Los Angeles area to apprehend illegal aliens with a significantly increased number of officers. The program was of limited duration, ending on either June 20 or June 22, 1973. On June 22, 1973, Loya and several others of Mexican ancestry filed suit in the district court against the INS and named INS officials, alleging that INS officers had used illegal ""dragnet"" tactics and had stopped and detained over 11,000 persons solely on the basis of ""Latin-American"" appearance. Plaintiffs moved for certification of the cause as a class action for all those of Latin-American appearance. They also sought injunctive relief against alleged violations of their constitutional and statutory rights by INS officers, an order that INS return to the United States those plaintiffs allegedly deported unlawfully, and a declaratory judgment regarding the alleged unlawful INS behavior. Finally, they sought damages for the named plaintiffs and attorneys' fees. The district court denied plaintiffs' motion for a temporary restraining order because the ""augmented"" program had ceased. This denial was not appealed to this Court. The denial of a preliminary injunction also was not appealed to this Court.
