Before MARTIN and NELSON, Circuit Judges, and JARVIS, District Judge.


BOYCE F. MARTIN, Jr., Circuit Judge.

The Immigration and Naturalization Service appeals the order of the district court permanently enjoining them from detaining Robert Probert while deportation hearings are pending. The Immigration and Naturalization Service argues the district court erred in finding 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2) unconstitutional as a denial of substantive and procedural due process and the right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment.
