TEXT ORDER granting 4 MOTION for Order to Show Cause filed by Mindia Abashidze. To maintain the status quo, and solely so that the Court can make an informed decision about its authority to issue relief and whether any relief that it has the power to issue should be granted, the respondents are temporarily enjoined from removing the petitioner from the United States. Additionally, so that the petitioner can fully participate in these proceedings and maintain adequate access to legal counsel, the respondents also are enjoined from transferring the petitioner to any district outside the state of New York. See Perez y Perez v. Noem, 2025 WL 1908284, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. June 13, 2025) (collecting cases). On November 4, 2025, this Court issued a decision and order in Alvarez Ortiz v. Freden, case number 25-cv-960, finding that noncitizens who are present in the United States without having been admitted or paroled are not subject to mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2) but instead are subject to detention under section 1226. See Alvarez Ortiz v. Freden, --- F.Supp.3d ---, 2025 WL 3085032 (W.D.N.Y. Nov. 4, 2025). Accordingly, the respondents are hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or before November 21, 2025, why, in light of that decision, the petition in this case should not be granted and the petitioner ordered released on his prior order of supervision. SO ORDERED. Issued by Hon. Lawrence J. Vilardo on 11/17/2025. (RFI) (Entered: 11/17/2025)
