Timeline
On July 24, 2019 Tigar issued a nationwide injunction that barred the Trump administration from denying asylum to persons who crossed through but did not apply for asylum in a third country. In August, the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit found the administration's asylum policy "likely violated federal regulatory law" but narrowed Tigar's injunction to apply only within the Ninth Circuit. On September 9, 2019, Tigar reinstated the nationwide scope of the injunction. The Supreme Court stayed both orders on September 11, 2019 without addressing the legality of the administration's asylum policy.
On November 19, 2018, Tigar issued a nationwide injunction barring the Trump administration from enforcing a rule that would deny asylum to anyone who entered the United States somewhere other than at a designated port of entry. Complaining about the ruling, President Trump characterized Tigar as an "Obama judge," prompting Chief Justice John Roberts to defend judicial independence by stating, "We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges. What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. That independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for." Tigar's injunction was upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court allowed the injunction to remain in place pending appeal.
On October 4, 2017, in the In re Wells Fargo & Company Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Tigar allowed a shareholder lawsuit to proceed against Wells Fargo's directors, finding that it was plausible that they had "consciously disregarded their fiduciary duties despite knowledge regarding [Wells Fargo's] widespread illegal account-creation activities." Writing for the New York Times, financial writer Gretchen Morgenson called the ruling "unusual and welcome" and said it would "resonate among corporate directors."
On April 2, 2015, Tigar ordered the California Department of Corrections to provide gender reassignment surgery to a transgender inmate, finding that such surgery was the only adequate medical treatment for her gender dysphoria.
On June 11, 2012, President Obama nominated Tigar to be a judge on the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, taking the seat vacated by Judge Saundra Brown Armstrong, who took senior status on March 23, 2012. The United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary held a hearing on his nomination on July 11, 2012, and reported his nomination to the floor on August 2. The Senate confirmed his nomination by unanimous consent on December 21, 2012, and he received his commission on January 18, 2013.
From 1990 until 1992, Tigar served as a litigation associate for the law firm Morrison & Foerster.
