ORDER --IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Respondents Presumed Opposed Motion to Lift the Stay of Removal (ECF No. 9) is GRANTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Courts prior stay of removal is LIFTED to the extent it precludes removal to Mexico. Respondents may not, under this Order, remove Petitioner to any country other than Mexico. Because Respondents continue to detain Petitioner pending removal, his § 2241 Petition remains ripe for adjudication. If Petitioner is removed to Mexico, Respondents shall immediately file a status report notifying the Court. Moreover, if Petitioner is not removed to Mexico on or before June 13, 2026, Respondents shall file a report on or before June 14, 2026, notifying the Court of the status of Petitioners removal..
