Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier filed a motion on April 30 asking federal courts to allow the state to enforce a new law that makes it a misdemeanor for illegal immigrants to enter Florida by skirting immigration officials.
In his motion to stay, Uthmeier asked U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams in Miami to pause her injunction blocking Florida from enforcing the law while he appeals to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta.
