In what could become a very problematic ruling, US District Court Judge Audrey Collins has challenged the President’s “unfettered” authority to designate individuals or groups as “Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs)” by Executive order. The court found that “the President’s authority to designate SDGT’s under Executive Order 13224 is unconstitutionally vague on its face.” The Court also held that language in the Executive Order allowing the Treasury Department to designate SDGT’s on the basis of their being “otherwise associated with” SDGT’s is “unconstitutionally vague on its face and overbroad.” (Full Decision is linked here) This ruling, if it stands, could have major implications with regard to the 27 Al Qaeda associated entities that were specifically designated by the President as SDGTs in Executive Order 13224. It could also have an impact on past Executive Orders under which Presidents have designated and blocked the assets of specific individuals and entities under various IEEPA based sanctions programs.
