Quick Glance: Legal Battle Over Texas Immigration Law Intensifies Again
- A federal appeals court issued a ruling late on Tuesday that once more halts Texas from apprehending migrants suspected of unlawfully entering the United States, shortly after the Supreme Court implemented the stringent new immigration law.
- Earlier in the day, a split decision by the Supreme Court granted Texas permission to enforce a statute granting law enforcement extensive authority to detain migrants believed to have illegally crossed the border while the legal conflict regarding the provision unfolds.
- Opponents view the legislation as the most extreme effort by a state to regulate immigration since the passage of an Arizona law over a decade ago, parts of which were invalidated by the Supreme Court.
- The dispute over the immigration statute in Texas is among several legal clashes between Texan officials and the Biden administration concerning the extent to which the state can monitor the Texas-Mexico border and deter unauthorized border crossings.

Quick Glance: Starbucks Fails Labor Law by Banning Pro-Union Buttons, DC Circuit Ruling
- A divided U.S. appeals court panel ruled that the manager of a Seattle Starbucks store violated federal labor law by instructing a barista not to distribute union buttons during her paid breaks.
- The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit stated that while the manager in 2022 specifically warned the worker not to give buttons to customers, her comments could also discourage other workers from distributing union paraphernalia, even among themselves.
- Starbucks spokeswoman expressed disappointment with the ruling, emphasizing that it involves a single store. On a national level, Starbucks continues to focus on supporting managers to ensure respect for partners' rights to organize, freely associate, and engage in other lawful activities.
- Starbucks and Workers United agreed in February to establish a 'framework' to guide organizing and collective bargaining, potentially resolving many pending legal disputes. The union has accused Starbucks of numerous labor law violations, including interrogating and retaliating against union supporters.

Quick Glance: Firearms Discovered at Sean 'Diddy' Combs' L.A. and Miami Properties, Sources Say
- During searches of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' properties in Los Angeles and Miami, federal agents found firearms, as confirmed by three informed sources on Tuesday. Homeland Security Investigations executed search warrants from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Monday and confiscated the music mogul's phones in Miami before his planned trip to the Bahamas. According to a source familiar with the matter, Combs is under a federal criminal investigation due to multiple lawsuits filed against him in recent months.
- Reportedly, Combs has been involved in numerous civil lawsuits since November, following a lawsuit from his former romantic partner Cassie, who accused him of physical and sexual abuse over several years. Combs has denied each of the sexual assault allegations, calling them 'sickening.' In February, a former employee who worked for Combs from September 2022 to November 2023 filed a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment, drugging, and threats.
- The cases are ongoing, and Combs has maintained his denial of the allegations. A man arrested on drug charges at a Miami airport on Monday is said to be an associate of Combs. Brendan Paul, 25, was arrested at the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport on suspicion of possessing suspected cocaine and suspected marijuana candy. Court records indicated that Paul was released on bond on Tuesday.
