Federal Judge Extends Block On No Match Rule, Temporarily
A federal judge Oct. 1 extended an order temporarily blocking the government from implementing the new Dept. of Homeland Security's "no-match" rule for another 10 days. Judge Charles R. Breyer from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California is expected to issue an opinion in the case some time within that 10-day period.
The order also prohibits the Social Security Administration from notifying approximately 140,000 employers across the country about the new rule, which had been set to go into effect Sept. 14.
