The Supreme Court held that the immigration and naturalization provisions regarding the release of unaccompanied minor aliens were not contrary to the due trial clause of the United States Constitution. [1] The Court stated that “young foreigners who are incarcerated on suspicion of execution may only be released by one parent, legal guardian or other related adult.” The legacy for which Reno v. Flores was announced that it was a 1997 judicially controlled transaction treaty that binds the defendants (federal authorities) [2] – the Flores v Reno transaction agreement or the Flores Settlement Agreement (FSA), to which both parties belonged in the Reno/Conflict Agreement. Flores accepted the District Court for Central California (C.D. Cal.). [3] [Notes 1] The Flores Settlement Agreement (FSA), by C.D. Cal. For more than two decades, federal authorities have established strict national rules and standards for the detention and treatment of minors. It will remain in effect until the federal government introduces final provisions for the implementation of the FSA agreement. The FSA regulates the policy of treating unaccompanied children held by the INS and its successor – the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the various agencies that work under the jurisdiction of DHS. The FSA is overseen by a U.S.
District Judge in the District Court of Central California. [4] Certainly, Presidents Clinton, Meissner and Virtue (who supported the agreement at the time) certainly could not have predicted how Flores would be even more distorted in the years to come. Nevertheless, the Occam razor explains that the simplest answer tends to be the right one. The simplest explanation for the Clinton administration`s action on Flores` signature in 1997 is that she had the same views on asylum laws as activist groups, that they should be more cowardly. According to the non-profit legal organization Human Rights First, the FSA required immigration authorities to “immediately detain children to begin with parents and other adult parents and licensed programs that accept custody of children.”
