跟进：联邦法官裁定国务院须重启 2027 年绿卡抽签登记，年度名额 5.5 万个
San Diego——美国加利福尼亚南区联邦地区法院法官 Jinsook Ohta 10 月 14 日发布初步禁令，要求国务院重新开放 2027 财年多元化移民签证（Diversity Visa）抽签登记。该项目俗称「绿卡抽签」，由国会 1990 年《移民法》设立，每年向对美移民人数较少的国家申请人提供最多 5.5 万个移民签证名额。
案件由南加州移民律所 Red Eagle Law 于今年 7 月提起，被告为国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（案件编号 3:26-cv-04738）。据彭博法律新闻报道，本届政府去年 12 月暂停了该项目：此前一名经该项目取得签证的葡萄牙籍男子被指在罗得岛州与马萨诸塞州的两起枪击中杀死四人，其后被发现自杀身亡；今年 3 月，政府又出台规定，要求申请人持有护照。Red Eagle Law 起诉要求恢复项目；Ohta 法官此前曾驳回该律所提出的临时限制令申请。
裁定原定的时间表为：国务院须在美东时间 10 月 15 日午夜前公布登记期安排，10 月 18 日前开放登记，登记窗口持续 30 天，中选申请人须在 11 月 19 日前得到通知；国务院须按常规程序处理中选申请、发放签证，直至 5.5 万个名额用完或 2027 财年于 2027 年 9 月 30 日结束为止。据 Qazinform 引述 Red Eagle Law 的宣布，法官随后批准了双方的联合请求，把登记开放与中选通知的期限各顺延两周，分别改为 11 月 1 日与 12 月 3 日。国务院此前表示，登记程序的调整延误了登记日期的公布；对本次裁定，国务院表示不对未决诉讼发表评论。Red Eagle Law 创办人柯蒂斯·莫里森（Curtis Morrison）在声明中表示，该裁定确认国会设立的移民项目必须依法执行，行政拖延不能凌驾于法律之上。

Follow-Up: Federal Judge Orders State Department to Reopen Registration for the 2027 Green Card Lottery, With 55,000 Visas a Year
SAN DIEGO — U.S. District Judge Jinsook Ohta of the Southern District of California issued a preliminary injunction on October 14 ordering the State Department to reopen registration for the fiscal 2027 Diversity Visa lottery. The program, commonly known as the green card lottery, was created by Congress in the Immigration Act of 1990 and makes up to 55,000 immigrant visas available each year to applicants from countries with low levels of immigration to the United States.
The case was filed in July by Red Eagle Law, a Southern California immigration law firm, against Secretary of State Marco Rubio (No. 3:26-cv-04738). According to Bloomberg Law, the administration suspended the program last December after a Portuguese national who had received a visa through the program was suspected of killing four people in two shootings in Rhode Island and Massachusetts and was later found dead by suicide; in March the administration issued a rule requiring applicants to hold a passport. Red Eagle Law sued to have the program resumed; Judge Ohta had earlier denied a temporary restraining order sought by the firm.
Under the original terms of the order, the State Department was to announce the registration period by midnight Eastern time on October 15, open registration by October 18 and keep the entry window open for 30 days, notify selected applicants by November 19, and process and issue visas under its usual procedures until the 55,000 visas are exhausted or the fiscal year ends on September 30, 2027. Qazinform, citing an announcement by Red Eagle Law, reported that the judge subsequently approved a joint request by both sides extending the registration-opening and selection-notification deadlines by two weeks, to November 1 and December 3 respectively. The State Department had previously said that changes to the entry process had delayed the announcement of registration dates, and it said it would not comment on pending litigation. Curtis Morrison, founder of Red Eagle Law, said in a statement that the ruling affirms statutory immigration programs must be administered as Congress enacted them and that administrative delays cannot override the law.
