A federal judge in Hawaii on Tuesday blocked the latest version of President Donald Trump's travel ban.
U.S. District Court Judge Derrick Watson granted a temporary restraining order, concluding that Trump appeared to run afoul of federal immigration law when he issued a proclamation last month restricting travel to the U.S. by citizens of eight countries.
Six of the eight nations are majority Muslim, but the judge's ruling does not focus on that issue.
The restraining order, sought by the state of Hawaii, a local Muslim cleric and others, came hours before the restrictions in the new directive were set to kick in at midnight.

Subject: BREAKING NEWS: Court rejects Trump administration attempt to include extended family in
travel ban
An appeals court on Thursday rejected the Trump administration's attempt to deny grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins of Americans an exemption from President Donald Trump's travel ban executive order.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously declined to overturn a district court judge's ruling that the administration was taking too narrow a view of an exception the Supreme Court carved out from the travel ban in June.
The appeals court panel also cleared the way for a greater flow of refugees, declining to disturb a lower court order that those already assigned to resettlement agencies can enter the U.S. despite Trump's order.
The revised travel ban Trump issued in March suspends issuance of U.S. visas to residents of six majority-Muslim countries and halts admission of refugees from across the globe. The Supreme Court has set arguments on the ban's legality for October 10.
