Ibrahim v. DHS
06-cv-0545 (N.D.  Cal.)
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Transportation Security Administration (TSA)
REDACTED
220,028.82
Court
Null
Challenge to non-citizen’s placement on No Fly watch list and rescission of her student visa.
Court found the watch list placement was erroneous and that the government’s attempt to defend the error was neither reasonable nor substantially justified.  Parties litigated the extent of fees until 2-Jan-2019 en banc ruling by Ninth Circuit sufficiently narrowed the points of contention to permit resolving the amount of the fees owed by settlement.
