FILE - In this Dec. 11, 2007 file photo, then-Commissioner Beryl A. Howell, speaks during the U.S. Sentencing Commission meeting in Washington. A gadfly attorney and a county sheriff from Arizona want to halt President Barack Obama’s immigration program in the first courtroom battle over the initiative designed to spare nearly 5 million people from deportation. On Monday, lawyer Larry Klayman will try to persuade a Judge Howell, nominated by Barack Obama that the immigration system, contrary to what the president says, isn’t really broken. Klayman says the president has violated the Constitution by doing an end run around Congress and that drastic changes in immigration programs should be stopped. (AP Photo/Stephen J. Boitano, File)
