U.S. Alien Terrorist Removal Court

The U.S. Alien Terrorist Removal Court is a specialized court that oversees cases involving non-citizens suspected of engaging in terrorist activities. Established under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, this court ensures that individuals identified as alien terrorists can be removed from the U.S. without confusing legal hurdles. While it is a key part of the government's efforts to combat terrorism, the Supreme Court may ultimately be involved in reviewing its decisions to ensure they comply with constitutional rights and legal standards.
