OPINION OF THE COURT

ALITO, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from an order of the district court declaring unconstitutional § 241(a)(4)(C)(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the “INA” or the “Act”), 8 U.S.C. § 1251(a)(4)(C)(i), and enjoining further deportation proceedings against plaintiff under that provision. Entertaining jurisdiction over plaintiffs constitutional claims under 28 U.S.C. § 1331, the district court held that § 241(a)(4)(C)® violates the Due Process Clause because it is impermissibly vague and deprives aliens such as plaintiff of a meaningful opportunity to be heard.…
