The Alien Terrorist Removal Court will have its first ever hearing Thursday at 11 a.m.ET, court documents made public Wednesday night revealed. Thursday’s court proceeding, an initial status hearing that will be held at the federal courthouse in DC, will be public. But many details about the DOJ’s case will be withheld from public view and even from the woman targeted in the proceedings. The ATRC is made up of five US district court judges, and its chief judge, Joan Ericksen, is reviewing the current case. For the next phase — when the judge holds the removal hearing in the case — the DOJ will face a higher bar of evidence, the preponderance of the evidence standard.
