AG Garland ends restrictions on consent decrees, aims to hold troubled police departments accountable Attorney General Merrick Garland announced on Friday that the Justice Department is rescinding a Trump-era memo that limited the use of consent decrees that hold police departments accused of misconduct accountable. Garland’s decision to rescind the restrictive rules comes after years of civil unrest due to the police-involved killings of Black men and women across the country. With a consent decree, a judge can keep tabs on a police department to make sure it’s in compliance to the court-ordered agreement. “This memorandum makes clear that the Department will use all appropriate legal authorities to safeguard civil rights and protect the environment, consistent with longstanding Departmental practice and informed by the expertise of the Department’s career workforce,” Garland said in a statement on Friday.
