Supreme Court Denies Right to Sue Over Foreign Spouses' Visa Denials

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against a California woman whose husband was denied entry to the US due to his tattoos being interpreted as gang-related. The decision emphasized that citizens do not have the right to influence federal immigration decisions regarding their spouses. Justice Barrett stated that while marriage is a fundamental right, it does not extend to limiting Congress's power over immigration. Justice Sotomayor dissented, arguing that this undervalues the right to marriage in immigration matters.

Supreme Court Rules Against Citizens Suing Over Foreign Spouses' Visa Denials

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision that U.S. citizens cannot sue the government over the denial of visas for their foreign spouses, even if the denial lacks explanation. The court determined that the constitutional right to marry does not extend to a right for the spouse to live in the U.S. The decision reverses a previous ruling by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which had allowed Sandra Munoz to challenge the State Department's denial of her El Salvadoran husband's visa.

Supreme Court Hurdles for Same-Sex Marriage Rights and Bar Council's Stance.

The Supreme Court of India has stated that even if it decides to grant marriage rights to same-sex couples, it will refrain from determining consequential rights including adoption, succession, and inheritance as these are inseparably linked to religion-based personal laws. The court pointed out that nearly three dozen laws governed various rights accruing to spouses from a marriage and that the issues are intrinsically linked to religion-based personal law. The court appeared to mull whether it would be prudent to restrain itself to issuing a declaration, leaving execution to the legislature.
