Well, it now appears that the media room will be open, so I'll try to live blog the JGG (Alien Enemies Act) hearing before Judge Boasberg myself. (This is on behalf of @lawfaremedia.org.)

Here's the phone-in number for the hearing at 5pm before Judge Boasberg in JGG. I'm going to try to be in the courtroom, so won't be able to live-blog. But if my notes are good, I'll try to write them up later. Not sure if colleagues @annabower.bsky.social or @tylermcbrien.com will blog.

Judge Boasberg: let's talk about the classes. seems to me that SCOTUS ruling -- they vacated my minute orders. one was certification of class. so seems to me that is likely vacated. therefore we need to start again.

Gelernt: we are not ... seeking a class for the entire thing anymore

Gelernt: right.
Judge: why isn't Padilla a problem for you here in sense that should't venue lie in district where they were held prior to removal?

Ashley Gorski: challenging future confinement ... defendants here wil have future legal custody over the custody class.
Judge: got to be habeas you're bringing ...
