ORDER: Based on the Government's representations in its emergency letter to the Court dated July 30, 2025 (ECF No. 5), it appears that at the time of the filing of the petition, Petitioner was in Newark, New Jersey. For the reasons discussed in Ozturk v. Hyde, 136 F.4th 382 (2d Cir. 2025), and Judge Furman's opinion in Khalil v. Joyce, 771 F. Supp. 3d 268 (S.D.N.Y. 2025), it appears likely that the proper venue for this matter is the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, not this Court. Pending further order by this Court or a transferee court, Respondents are hereby restrained and enjoined from removing Petitioner from the United States. See id. at 292. The conference with the Court scheduled for 3: 00 p.m. today, July 31, 2025, will take place telephonically: Counsel and any interested parties should call (855) 244-8681 and enter attendee ID number 2312 828 7066. This Order supersedes and replaces the TRO issued by this Court on July 30, 2025 (ECF No. 3). SO ORDERED. (Telephone Conference set for 7/31/2025 at 03:00 PM before Judge J. Paul Oetken.) (Signed by Judge J. Paul Oetken on 7/31/2025) (rro)
