Court to hear lawsuit over Prince Harry's U.S. visa records filed by Heritage Foundation

The conservative Heritage Foundation is taking the federal government to court in an effort to get records related to Prince Harry's U.S. visa application, questioning whether the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) acted properly after the Duke of Sussex admitted he has used drugs on U.S. and foreign soil.
The Heritage Foundation and DHS officials will appear in federal court next week, after the think tank filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit earlier this month to force the release of the prince's immigration records, given the "widespread public and press interest on the specific issue of whether DHS acted, and is acting, appropriately as regards the Duke of Sussex." So far, DHS has declined to release the records.
In its complaint, the Heritage Foundation sought to "compel the production of information" related to DHS' decision to admit the duke into the United States "and to allow him to remain to date."
