Summary
In Baton Rouge, immigration court observers are winning back access after persistent denials—thanks to a powerful email from Acting Chief Judge Sherron Ashworth reminding courts of their public access obligations. For months, groups like Misión Migrante faced repeated blockades, often blamed on judges, but now they’re armed with the judge’s message and hopeful that transparency is finally being enforced. One observer used the email to break through a denial, another now carries it as a badge of progress. Their fight, documented meticulously, isn’t just local—it’s a nationwide push for accountability, with strategies being shared across the country to keep courts open to the public.
