The spotlight on president trumps immigration order shifted to the bay area. The 9th Circuit Court of appeals in San Francisco. A threejudge panel decided to expected to decide on travel ban. Washington and minnesota challenge the ban and turned the briefs to the court. If the ban on travelers from seven majority muslim countries is restored, it would unleash chaos, they said.
