WASHINGTON - A U.S. judge on Sunday ruled the Trump administration did not act lawfully when it named a former Virginia attorney general as the acting director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and invalidated some new asylum directives.

Moss said Cuccinelli’s appointment would relieve the president “of responsibility and accountability for selecting acting officials” and could essentially allow the executive brand to fill many senior jobs “with nearly anyone” by simply creating a new position after a vacancy. Moss’ ruling said only the five asylum seekers who sued were entitled to new proceedings before USCIS and he declined to extend relief to others who had been denied asylum or ordered removed under Cuccinelli’s directives.

DHS’s acting head Kevin McAleenan then appointed Cuccinelli to serve in the newly created position as principal deputy USCIS director.
