this is fox5 local news at ten. the justice department is asking the supreme court to block a just's ruling on president trump 's travel ban. the administration is asking the high court to over turn the ruling which limits the scope of a temporary ban on refugees and travelers from six muslim majority countries. fox's ellison barber reports tonight. the trump administration is making another appeal to the supreme court over the controversial travel ban. last month the nation's highest court handed a partial win to the

was reasonable for the government to enforce the travel restrictions on people who did not have a quote, credibl claim of a bona fide relationship with someone already in the us. what didn't the supreme court do? well, according to a highway i court adequately define close family relations. on thursday judge derek watson responded expanded the list of pennsylvania meal yeah relation ships if they're from one of the six muslim countries listed in the executive order. the specific family basedded visa provisions of the immigration and nationality act constitutes cherry picking and results in a pre-determined, equally federal immigration statutes define a close family in a much broader manner. attorney general jeff sessions says the decision undermines national security and shows a lack of respect for the separation of powers. some say

the supreme court's ruling was narrow, but unclear and because of that, the administration narrowly defined close family. they did not include fiances and at the very last minute that same day that evening they changed it and allowed fiances to include it. so there has been a lot of confusion about who is in and who is not, but it seems like there is a strong argument from the state of hawaii's point of view, how do you say the grandparent is not a close family member purchase the the just advertises are on a three month long recess, but would like to deal with this sooner rather than later. they would deal with the bigger constitutional questions from this ban in the fall. in washington, i'm ellison barber, fox news. >> turning to weather, i guess it's safe to say it's not 43 out tomorrow. it's not. that was a test. it was warm today, but not as warm as it has been. it feels like last night when the weather went through it broke just a little

forming to the south of us. here we are four, 5:00 very lightly the scattered in nature very much of a stray shower or so moving threuvment here's the 7:00 hour. most of it is hanging more to the west of us and actually to the south along the i95 corridor as well. 71- degrees in the meantime. for tonight partly cloudy becoming clear and tomorrow heating it up for you to 90-degrees, a hot one . mostly sunny skies, but a pretty nice day. winds will push in from the north and then they'll switch up a little bit and we'll get more of a southerly breeze. we are talk ing about the chance of some storms by the time we get to monday and tuesday so we'll keep our eyes to the skies on that. that is when we'll start to seat humidity creep back into the picture. temperatures close to seasonal. matt. thanks gwen. now to a fox5 exclusive. a d c police sergeant is facing disturbing allegations miff of police misconduct. he is responsible for police recruit ment, but
