Florida cannot enforce a new law that would bar illegal immigrants from entering the Sunshine State, the Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday. “The application for stay presented to Justice Thomas and by him referred to the Court is denied,” read the order rejecting Florida’s emergency appeal to the high court.

The Florida Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to halt next week’s scheduled execution of Michael Bell in the 1993 murders of two people outside a Jacksonville bar.

Florida will no longer be allowed to enforce a controversial new immigration law. It comes after the Supreme Court denied the State’s emergency appeal.
