Because the feds have been grabbing citizens, and SCOTUS held (5-4) the petition must be filed in the district of confinement, and the feds could move people anywhere, this means everyone in the country needs to have lawyers in all 94 U.S. district courts ready to file habeas petitions for them. - ThreadSky

NEW! DHS expands on its defiant middle finger to the Supreme Court's ruling that anyone subject to the Alien Enemies Act must get "reasonable time" to be able to "actually seek habeas relief."

They say they're only giving 12 HOURS for people to raise an objection, and 24 HOURS total to sue. Period!

ACLU has been doing some admirable work trying to achieve this but they can't be everywhere at once. IT COSTS MONEY. they have to know an individual has been abducted.

It's apparent that SCOTUS needs to issue a stay against ICE performing any and all duties until they can demonstrate compliance. A total stand down.

Ready to file habeas petitions IN 24 HOURS while the detainee locator database is routinely days behind or flat out wrong.
And my statement was true even under competent/less fashy administrations.

So patchwork is again in vogue. Times change.

elsargentogarcia.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sounds like a job for the ACLU and other organizations. Maybe the state bars could help, or is that wishful thinking?

As a lawyer admitted to a few of those 94 US Districts that could actually be done given the stakes, but not all of us are criminal lawyers with the first clue how to file a habeas. Need some coordination by those that are.

I'm not a lawyer, but that sounds burdensome.

noospheric.bsky.social•4 days ago

It is but not impossible.

turgidjacobian.bsky.social•4 days ago

They've built a repetition/evasion machine. Thanks for accepting the machine, SCOTUS.

Come on, capitalists, someone make a subscription service for this!

I feel like I need to be walking around with a pocket of confetti printed with “I’ve been snatched” and my personal info or something.

This ruling highlights the urgent need for accessible legal resources and systemic change to protect civil liberties. How can we better support organizations fighting for due process and against government overreach?

This sounds like the time to organize a group to always have lawyers ready to go, everywhere.

They think this is a game. Woe be to those who are not serious in this day and age. This is not a game. #FAFO and it won’t be pretty, no matter what you think.

Will they let you carry a habeas petition in your shoe and somehow file it when they grab you?

noospheric.bsky.social•4 days ago

Lawyers so inclined across the country need to be given a template for those petitions. Lawyers are not unaccustomed to having to file things on a few hours notice but not having to invent the wheel on it is a huge jump start.

wrecked9n76e.bsky.social•4 days ago

Will they take you to Burger King and let you wear the paper crown instead of a bag?

peltast1.bsky.social•4 days ago

You can have whatever you want in your shoe. You won't be filing anything as you'll be spending your 24 hours chained up in a prisoner bus.

santrutcha.bsky.social•4 days ago

Now what? Can this go back to Scotus?

margiem.bsky.social•3 days ago

Apparently SCOTUS likes to be given the middle finger!

wbaker14.bsky.social•4 days ago

Ridiculous. Lock them up for contempt. Someone had to step up and say enough is enough. Where is the rest of our leadership? The dems? The republicans who remain cowering in silence? Shameful.
