NewsNation reports that US District Judge Lewis Kaplan ruled on Friday that New York City must comply with a federal subpoena from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for names of some residents of a Bronx shelter. The New York Post, PJ Media and RedState report that the order covers names and birth dates of some male residents of the Bruckner shelter in Mott Haven. The outlets say ICE agreed that a special master will identify only residents with certain serious criminal histories. Kaplan wrote that the city had not shown producing the list would be unduly burdensome. According to the New York Post, ICE has filed four subpoenas since August and the city resisted each one.
