Per NPR reporting from inside the courtroom: ". . .During a phone hearing on Friday, Judge Michael Farbiarz of the U.S. District Court for New Jersey said that the government's attempt to continue to detain Khalil was "highly, highly, highly unusual." Farbiarz recently ruled that Khalil's arrest and detention over his pro-Palestinian activism at Columbia University was likely unconstitutional. . . ." Yup. End update.
Waking very late -- after a late night flight out of the high mountains. . . smile.
And I am just catching up on lots of things, so I won't live blog it, but Mr. Khalil will likely make bail this evening. See below:
. . .As to the Petitioner's June 16 bail filing, at ECF 308, the briefing became fully submitted this afternoon, June 18.
The Court will conduct oral argument on the motion on June 20 at noon.
The argument will be conducted by phone. Court staff will be in touch with the parties today as to logistics. As is in every case, members of the public can listen in should they wish to by going to the Court's [https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/khalil-v-joyce-25-1963] website; clicking on menu in the upper left hand corner; going from there to case information; and then following the instructions.
So Ordered by Judge Michael E. Farbiarz on 6/18/2025. . . .
More posts soon -- as the fresh cherries, piping hot coffee and a banana kick in. Grin.
