Farmers Branch law can’t be enforced, for now
Tagged: Farmers Branch, judge, TexasPosted on: June 21st, 2007“A federal judge here granted a preliminary injunction that forces the city of Farmers Branch to win at trial before it can enforce an ordinance barring apartment rentals to undocumented immigrants.
Agreeing with lawyers for residents and apartment owners who sued, U.S. District Judge Sam Lindsay wrote that the measure is “based upon a scheme that does not adopt federal immigration standards” and is too vague for landlords to apply.”
