They will do anything to protect the records of the illegal aliens that were improperly granted amnesty. The Obama administration lied to the court regarding the date the program began and 50,000 illegals were given amnesty before the start date. Now they refuse to turn over records. They are worried about their privacy and don't want to break the trust between the department and the people who entered this country illegally. Weird considering that Obamacare is forcing doctors to allow total access to private patient records. Obama doesn't care about the privacy of Americans, but will protect illegals at all costs. This is such a scam. They should be in big trouble for lying. I doubt that ethics training will do any good for the DOJ. They knew they were lying and no amount of training will make them honest or respectful of our laws. The administration has a hell of a lot of nerve pushing back just because a judge didn't appreciate being lied to as the administration did what they wanted. Obama needs to learn that we have laws and he also has to abide by them.
"The Obama administration is pushing back against a federal judge’s order sanctioning government lawyers for misleading the court about the implementation dates for executive amnesty.
In a court filing Tuesday, the Justice Department argued that District Court Judge Andrew Hanen "far exceed the bounds of appropriate remedies for what this Court concluded were intentional misrepresentations" when he ordered government lawyers to undergo ethics training and turn over the immigration records of the illegal immigrants who benefited from the government’s implementation snafu.
Writing that they "emphatically disagree" with the order, Obama administration lawyers in their filing requested a stay of the order and announced an intention to appeal.
Hanen’s May 19 order was a response to DOJ lawyers’ assertions before his court that the executive amnesty programs Obama announced in 2014 — Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) and expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) — would not start until February 18, 2015.
The government, however, began approving expanded DACA applications prior to the implementation date and even after Hanen issued his initial order blocking the programs. DOJ lawyers, meanwhile, assured the court of compliance.
"The misconduct in this case was intentional, serious and material," Hanen wrote in his May 19 order. "In fact, it is hard to imagine a more serious, more calculated plan of unethical conduct."
According to the Justice Department the judge’s order would require the government to turn over the "sensitive personal information" of some 50,000 illegal immigrants who were granted expanded DACA.
"With respect to public trust, even though the information is to be provided under seal, the production of sensitive personal information in such large quantities would be very likely to undermine individuals’ trust in DHS’s ability to maintain the confidentiality of personal information provided to it, a trust that is essential to its mission," the government argued in its filing."
