On May 12, 2026 Respondents filed a motion to amend the Court's prior order enjoining the transfer of Petitioner from the District of New Mexico 11 . Petitioner first entered the United States in 2019. A final order of removal was entered on January 10, 2020. On March 1, 2021, Border Patrol placed Petitioner in custody to effectuate removal. DHS released him released 18 days later on an order of supervision. ICE rearrested Petitioner on August 18, 2025 and he has remained in detention since.Respondents represent that Mexico agreed to accept Petitioner on May 8, 2026. They attached a declaration from a deportation officer stating that "Mexico has agreed to accept Petitioner through the Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Haiti (CHNV) agreement." Doc. 11-1 10. Petitioner opposes the motion and argues that "respondents have produced no admissible evidence that the Government of Mexico has actually agreed to receive Petitioner." Doc. 12 at 2. The federal government established the CHNV program in 2022. In exchange for granting two-year humanitarian parole to 30,000 people from the four specified countries, Mexico agreed to allow U.S. immigration officials to return nationals from these countries to Mexico if they were apprehended at the border. The program terminated on March 25, 2025. See Termination of Parole Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans, 90 Fed. Reg. 13611 (Mar. 25, 2025).There is no indication that Petitioner has ever been part of the CHNV program. DHS issued his order of supervision before the program began and Respondents have not put forth any evidence that he later received humanitarian parole pursuant to the CHNV agreement. At this point, the CHNV program has been abolished for over a year. It is therefore difficult to understand how Petitioner's removal to Mexico could have been secured "through the Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Haiti agreement." Doc. 11 at 2. Respondents have also not attached any communication with the Government of Mexico demonstrating that it has agreed to accept Petitioner and provide travel documents.In light of these discrepancies, the Court hereby ORDERS Respondents to file documentation showing that Mexico has formally agreed to accept Petitioner. Respondents shall file this information within seven days of entry of this Order. (gpb) (Entered: 05/14/2026)
