The federal government has asked a Miami judge to pause her order to close an immigration detention center in Florida's Everglades, known as "Alligator Alcatraz."

A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration must halt construction and stop bringing new detainees to Florida's "Alligator Alcatraz."

The ruling, which gives the state 60 days to act, comes as Gov. Ron DeSantis plans to convert a prison in North Florida into a second immigrant detention site.
