YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFederal law requires the federal government to apprehend certain illegal aliens and put them into federal custody "when" they are released from non-federal custody (for example, from serving time for state crime).
In some cases, the federal government did not take the person into custody immediately after they were released from state custody. In fact, in some cases the delay was ... quite considerable.
The question before the Court is whether the term "when" has a time limit, and if so, how long is it? Can the federal government apprehend someone days, weeks, months, or even years after the fact?
The court decides this issue in Nielsen v. Preap .
