Lawyer for detained Turkish student calls for U.S. government to produce her
March 27, 2025
A lawyer for a Turkish national and doctoral student at Tufts University who was detained by U.S. Department of Homeland Security agents filed an emergency motion Thursday requesting that the government produce her.The request was made a day after Rumeysa Ozturk, 30, was stopped by masked federal agents after she left her home in Somerville, Massachusetts. A federal judge presiding over her case ordered lawyers representing the government to respond to the motion Thursday morning.
Early last year, Federal Court Justice Henry Brown issued a surprise ruling. He had been asked by an Ottawa lawyer to compel the federal government to fill vacant judicial positions on top courts across the country.Justice Brown didn’t quite order the federal government to do its job, but in his judgment, billed as the first of its kind, he said he expected Ottawa to reduce judicial vacancies in a reasonable time.
