Penalty for hiring illegal immigrants survives test
http://www.journalnow.com/servlet/Satel ... 3353956246
JOURNAL WIRE REPORT
PHOENIX — A federal judge refused yesterday to block the Jan. 1 implementation of an Arizona law that penalizes businesses that knowingly employ illegal immigrants.
Judge Neil Wake of U.S. District Court denied requests for a temporary restraining order or an emergency injunction to block the law from taking effect.
Wake said that those who would suffer most from blocking the law would be legal low-skill workers who lose jobs and get depressed wages because of competition from illegal immigrants.
Business interests and other advocacy groups challenging the law have already asked the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals based in San Francisco for an injunction blocking the law

The case already went to the 9th circuit of appeals and the 9th circuit also refused to prevent the law from being implemented.

I too thought this might be done in the 9th Curcuit court, but I saw this in today's AZ Repugnant.

When I was speaking with our corporate attorney this morning I asked him about that and he said the operative word is "could".
Something about that court only having 3 business days left this year and he didn't see them wasting their time when the Plaintiff's caused their own problems.
guess we'll see............Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

PHOENIX — Arizona’s new employer-sanctions law will take effect as scheduled Jan. 1.
On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Neil Wake rejected a request by business groups and others to bar the state from enforcing the law before a final ruling on its constitutionality.
And just hours later, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refused an emergency request to second-guess Wake and keep the law from being enforced.

Judge Supports Arizona Law on Immigrants
RANDAL C. ARCHIBOLD
A new Arizona law considered among the nation’s toughest against employers who hire illegal immigrants will go into effect on Jan. 1 after federal judges on Friday refused to block it.
Both a United States district judge in Phoenix and a federal appeals court in San Francisco, (the 9th circuit) ruling on separate lawsuits by business and civil rights groups, declined to stand in the way.
The law calls for suspending the license of an employer found to have knowingly hired an illegal worker, and revocation for a second offense.
First, Judge Neil Vincent Wake of Federal District Court in Phoenix issued a sharp defense of the rights of lawful workers and said the law would not burden businesses in the short run.
Then on Friday night, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit deferred a decision on an injunction until after a hearing by Judge Wake on Jan. 16, provided a “decision is reached with reasonable promptness.â€
