MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: The matter is set for a telephonic status hearing on November 12, 2025 at 9:45 am to discuss next steps, in particular Respondent's view on the application of Ochoa Ochoa v. Noem, 2025 WL 2938779, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Oct. 16, 2025). At the status hearing Respondent should be prepared to address on the record: (1) whether Petitioners were located in the Northern District of Illinois at the time this case was filed; (2) the current status of Petitioners' immigration proceedings; and (3) Petitioners' current location. Pursuant to the court's authority under the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651, the Government is ordered not to remove Petitioner from the jurisdiction of the United States and not to transfer him to any federal judicial district other than those in the States of Illinois, Indiana, or Wisconsin. A.A.R.P. v. Trump, 145 S. Ct. 1364, 1369 (2025) (citing 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a)) ("[T]he Government represented on the record in federal court that it reserved the right to remove detainees after midnight. We had the power to issue injunctive relief to prevent irreparable harm to the applicants and to preserve our jurisdiction over the matter."); United States v. United Mine Workers of Am., 330 U.S. 258, 293 (1947) ("The District Court had the power to preserve existing conditions while it was determining its own authority to grant injunctive relief.") If the Petitioner is already, as of the posting of this order, located outside of Illinois, Indiana, or Wisconsin but within the United States, or is in the midst of transportation outside of those States to another State, then this bar on transfer does not require the immediate return of the Petitioner as long as Respondent intends to hold Petitioner within the United States. Attorneys/Parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 855-244-8681, Access Code: 2302 225 8245. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing (use toll free number). Please, please be sure to keep your phone on mute when you are not speaking.
