Yawn. No surprise. The able USDC Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland agrees that we don't run star chambers, where fake ICE employees claiming to be "judges" may completely re-write, and then "enter" orders on six year old cases, to make someone lawfully here. . . immediately removable -- without any notice, or opportunity to be heard in opposition (violating due process).
That is antithetical to our system of ordered liberty. But it is just. . . Thursday, to the Noemites, and Tangeriners 2.0. Here's the order, and a bit:
. . .See 8 U.S.C. § 1231 (a)(1)(A) (“when an alien is ordered removed, the Attorney General shall remove the alien from the United States within a period of 90 days.”). Respondents also have detained Abrego Garcia for the six-month presumptive period articulated in Zadvydas, when conservatively considering the time spent in ICE detention since 2019, combined with the time spent in detention in El Salvador, and in ICE custody after securing his release in the Tennessee Criminal Matter. Nor had Respondents done anything to secure Abrego Garcia’s third-country removal between 2019 and August 2025. Cf. Zavvar v. Scott, Civ. No. TDC-25-2104, 2025 WL 2592543 at *4 (D. Md. Sept. 8, 2025). Thus, for the reasons previously articulated in ECF No. 110 and in this Order, Abrego Garcia is likely to succeed on the merits of any further Zadvydas claim. . . .
[T]he public retains keen interest in ensuring that government agencies comply with court orders, especially those necessary to protect individual liberties. In this respect, the Court reminds Respondents that . . . [f]or the public to have any faith in the orderly administration of justice, the Court’s narrowly crafted remedy cannot be so quickly and easily upended without further briefing and consideration. . . .
Onward, resolutely -- to a matinee later today, of the "Nutcracker on Ice" -- little kids' edition! Wind-chills are now between minus 14 and minus 25. . . so, "on ice" -- quite literally!
