MINUTE entry before the Honorable Mary M. Rowland: Petitioner has filed a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas corpus petition challenging his present detention in ICE custody. The matter is set for a telephonic status hearing on 12/9/25 at 9:00 am. The parties should be prepared to discuss whether the decision in Ochoa Ochoa v. Crowley et al, 25-cv-10865 (N.D. Ill) (Dkt. 20) has any effect on Petitioner's requested relief. By December 8, 2025, Respondent make a preliminary filing stating: (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) Petitioner's current location and proper Respondent based on that 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. Instead, the parties and the Court will address the issue after the Respondent makes the preliminary filing. Attorneys/Parties should appear for the hearing by calling the Toll-Free Number: 650-479-3207, Access Code: 1801732451. Members of the public and media will be able to call in to listen to this hearing (use toll free number). The Clerk shall email a copy of this order to Tom Walsh, Chief of the Civil Division, United States Attorney's Office, Northern District of Illinois, Craig Oswald, AUSA, United States Attorney's Office, Northern District of Illinois, and Joshua Press, AUSA, United States Attorney's Office, Northern District of Illinois.
