In The Guatemalan Teens' Putative Federal Class Action Suit, Noem / Miller / Rubio And Tangerine Are Reminded: "Don't Try To Move (Or Remove) Any Guatemalan Teen [Or Toddler]".


It is. . . unfortunate, that federal trial court judges now feel the need to re-iterate injunctive orders, when new judges are assigned -- but that is the case, with this version of the federal government -- as its "new normal" is to violate clearly applicable orders they don't like, and then feign ignorance. Or claim they saw "ambiguities".

So, on a Saturday -- likely while watching college football weekend two unfold, the able USDC Judge Timothy Kelly in DC took time to RE-ENTER the standing TRO, and make it even clearer to the Noemites, thus:

. . .MINUTE ORDER:

The judge handling this case on an emergency basis, in response to rapidly unfolding circumstances, entered a temporary restraining order on August 31, 2025, at 12:37 p.m. that ordered Defendants not to "transfer, repatriate, remove, or otherwise facilitate the transport of any Plaintiff or member of the putative class from the United States." The case was not assigned to this Court until a few days later.

Since then, including during the hearing on September 10, the factual record, the representations of the parties, and the relief requested by the Plaintiffs have continued to evolve.

Thus, to allow the Court to fully consider these developments, the Court finds that "good cause," see Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(2), supports a brief extension of the temporary restraining order entered on August 31, 2025, at 12:37 p.m. Thus, it is hereby ORDERED that the temporary restraining order entered on August 31, 2025, at 12:37 p.m. is hereby EXTENDED through September 16, 2025.

Defendants remain under the same obligations until that time. To be clear: it is ORDERED that Defendants "shall not transfer, repatriate, remove, or otherwise facilitate the transport of any Plaintiff or member of the putative class from the United States" until after 11:59 p.m. on September 16, 2025, absent further order of the Court.

Signed by Judge Timothy J. Kelly on 9/13/2025. . . .


No you know -- onward, to likely watch the Bears lose(?) (yet again) to the Detroit Kitties. Grin. . . .
