[U: A.F.P.P. Released; More Supremes, Manaña!] More Shameless Flores Shenanigans, By Sarah Fabian, For Trump...

UPDATED: young A.F.P.P. is free now, on Tuesday night: ". . .Defendants hereby notify the Court that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) has released A.F.P.P. from custody. . . ." In addition there will be more opinions from the Supremes, at 10 AM EDT tomorrow. End, updated portion.

The date upon which A.F.P.P., a young man, reaches majority -- and thus ages out of juvenile detention by ICE, is a calendar event.

A.F.P.P.'s 18^th birthday is tomorrow. Now, only just this afternoon -- Sarah Fabian (the Trumpian lawyer who argued soap, toothbrushes, beds, and blankets -- for kids are. . . optional -- i.e., not needed for safe, sanitary conditions, while in ICE custody) claims an emergency motion is needed since she and ICE apparently cannot operate their calendaring software.

A.F.P.P. should simply be released by the able USDC Judge Dolly Gee tomorrow. And it will be on Sarah Fabian. No saving emergency -- that young man/refugee should be set free into the US interior. That's the price of her incompetence, regardless of whether A.F.P.P. is a dangerous person or not. Laws are laden with consequences. Sarah Fabian should get no more "do overs". Here is her latest self important, deflecting, shuffling idiocy -- as a court filing in Los Angeles this afternoon:

. . . .Pursuant to Local Rule 7-19, Defendants hereby apply ex parte for an order from this Court lifting the restrictions in Paragraph 4.e of the Court’s June 26, 2020 order prohibiting the transfer of A.F.P.P. to an adult detention facility when he ages out of juvenile detention on July 7, 2020. Defendants request this amendment to the Court’s order for the reasons set forth in the accompanying memorandum of points and authorities and Declaration. Counsel for Defendants met and conferred with counsel for Plaintiffs by phone regarding the subject of this ex parte application. The parties were not able to reach any resolution regarding this issue, and counsel for Plaintiffs has stated that Plaintiffs oppose the relief requested in this Application.

URGENCY: This relief is sought by means of an ex parte application because A.F.P.P. will age out of juvenile detention on July 7, 2020, and if this relief is not granted on or before that date, Defendants will have no option to comply with this Court’s order except to release him from custody. Defendants therefore do not have enough time to notice and file a traditional motion to obtain the requested relief. . . .

These people are. . . insufferable. This is what they rely on, to justify indefinite detention of a child, now becoming an adult:

". . .On September 21, 2019, A.F.P.P. was arrested by ERO at a home in Maryland. He was not the target of the ERO operation, but he was a minor present without a parent or legal guardian. He was living in a house with two other unrelated adult males. ERO officers observed he had what appeared to be a gang related tattoo on his neck. Ex. 2, page 4. When ERO officers accompanied him to get his identity documents, he attempted to grab a nine-inch knife from a closet. Officers were able to get him away from the knife before he grabbed it. . . ."

One moment -- one false move -- by a frightened kid, stuck between armed, imposing ICE agents. Lock him up forever, without a trial -- argues Bill Barr (and Sarah Fabian).

The able Judge has said she will rule Tuesday by late afternoon, on the West Coast. I'd bet A.F.P.P. will be set free.

Onward, on to an as yet un-dawned (but coming) bright and sunny Tuesday -- putting my eldest back on a plane, headed out. . . West.
