“The Supreme Court has removed from its calendar a high-profile oral argument about Title 42, which limits migrants’ ability to seek asylum amid the coronavirus pandemic.

With no explanation, the court on Thursday nixed the oral argument scheduled for March 1. The justices were set to consider 19 GOP-led states’ attempt to intervene in the case and maintain the policy, which was first implemented under former President Trump.

The Biden administration, which has had a complex relationship with Title 42, last week filed a brief suggesting the case will become moot once the administration revokes the public health emergency on May 11.

“Absent other relevant developments, the end of the public health emergency will (among other consequences) terminate the Title 42 orders and moot this case,” the Justice Department wrote.”
