Read our privacy policy A US appeals court has dealt a setback to the Trump administration’s plan to block asylum applications at the US-Mexico border by ruling against the policy in nine states. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policy could not be applied in the nine states that make up the circuit, which includes two states that are on the border with Mexico. There was a partial win for the Trump administration as the court stopped short of applying its ruling nationwide and left open the possibility of the ban being applied in the other states which border Mexico - Texas and New Mexico. "While the injunction remains overbroad - even as modified by the 9th Circuit's decision - we will now be able to apply the rule at issue to curb asylum abuse outside of the 9th Circuit," Stephanie Grisham, White House press secretary, said in a statement.
