Important ruling--should mean that at least in NY, Connecticut and Vermont, ICE can't routinely deny many detained immigrants the right to a bond determination. 3-0 decision, written by a Trump appointee to 2nd Circuit.

NEW: A federal appeals court has rightly affirmed that the Trump admin's policy of detaining immigrants without any process is unlawful.
The mandatory detention of millions of noncitizens - many of whom have lived here for decades - defies the Constitution and basic human decency.
The decision marks a split at the appeals court level, setting up the possibility for the issue to reach the Supreme Court.
