Lift Stay

Jun 07, 2026

Text ORDER GRANTING 10 Opposed Motion to Lift Stay. Petitioner is subject to a final order of removal and Respondents now move to lift that stay, asserting it is the sole impediment to removal. Upon review, the Court finds good cause to lift the stay in part and therefore ORDERS that the Motion to Lift Stay is GRANTED; the stay is LIFTED to permit Petitioners removal to Honduras or in the alternative to on the charge(s) contained in the Notice to Appear, but Respondents may not remove Petitioner to any other country under this Order; the Petition remains pending while Petitioner is detained; Respondents shall promptly file a status report upon removal, or, if removal has not occurred by July 8, 2026, shall file a status report by July 9, 2026.

Text ORDER DISMISSING AS MOOT 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Petitioner challenges his or her continued immigration detention and seeks release. Respondents represent that Petitioner was removed from the United States on June 10, 2026. Because Petitioner is no longer in custody, the Court cannot grant the relief requested, and the Petition is therefore moot. IT IS ORDERED that the Petition (ECF No. 1) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE AS MOOT. Signed by Judge Jason K. Pulliam. (This is a text-only entry generated by the court.
