ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) The government's watch list of more than 1 million people identified as "known or suspected terrorists" violates the constitutional rights of those placed on it, a federal judge ruled Wednesday .
The ruling from U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga grants summary judgment to nearly two dozen Muslim U.S. citizens who had challenged the watch list with the help of a Muslim civil-rights group, the Council on American-Islamic Relations .
But the judge is seeking additional legal briefs before deciding what remedy to impose .
