Justice Department to seek emergency stay to allow immigration action
WASHINGTON Fri Feb 20, 2015 1:39pm EST
(Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department will seek an emergency stay to block a decision by a federal judge and allow eligible immigrants to apply for benefits granted under President Obama's executive action, the White House said on Friday.
The Justice Department will file paperwork to seek a stay by Monday, White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters.
