Despite 1st Circuit's 9/18 ruling invalidating DHS's 3d-country removal policy, DHS claims the decision hasn't yet taken effect. Class counsel fears a flight will take class members to Burundi, Rwanda, & Central African Republic *tomorrow.* Asks 1st Cir for emergency action.
Plaintiffs-Appellants seek an emergency order clarifying that this
Court's September 18, 2026 decision is in effect as binding precedent and that this Court's March 16, 2026, stay "pending appeal" has been dissolved
now that the Court has issued its decision and judgment. In the alternative,
Plaintiffs-Appellants request the Court either issue an order lifting the
March 16, 2026 stay or issue the mandate. Emergency action is needed because Plaintiffs-Appellants have learned that Defendants-Appellees are proceeding with removing class members to third countries in Africa,
pursuant to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) guidance which
this Court found unlawful and set aside, tomorrow. In response to an email
from class counsel, Defendants-Appellees' counsel confirmed in a 5:14 p.m.
email today that their position is that this Court's stay remains in effect until
the mandate is issued. Exhibit A. In addition, counsel for Defendants-

The central problem with Chief Justice Roberts’s Friday afternoon “administrative” stay in the White House ballroom case isn’t just the lack of any clear standards for such relief; it’s that it’s hard to see how, *whatever* the standards are, this case could satisfy them. Me in today’s “One First”:

Now @apnews.com has a deeply reported story confirming the recently-hired ICE officer who shot a man in Maine had serious mental health issues and a long history of violence against women. This comes after ICE slashed hiring standards and rushed some into the field before background checks cleared.
By  JACK BROOK, MICHAEL R. SISAK, AMANDA SWINHART and CLAIRE GALOFARO
Updated 7:59 PM EDT, July 16, 2026
Comments 115
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) — The Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who shot a Colombian man in Maine this week is an Army veteran who has struggled with serious mental health issues since early childhood and never should have been given a badge and gun to patrol American streets, several of his close relatives told The Associated Press.

David Brouillette has a history of terrifying and violent behavior, according to those relatives. They accuse him of attacking women in his life over the years, and one shared a voicemail with the AP from last winter in which he told her that he thought someone should slit her throat.

Brouillette’s troubling past further challenges how thoroughly the Department of Homeland Security has vetted recruits as it went on a hiring spree to help carry out President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

At least 10 people have died in encounters with immigration agents since Trump launched the crackdown after retaking office, including 25-year-old Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero, a Colombian national who was shot and killed by Brouillette on Monday while in his car near his home in the coastal Maine city of Biddeford.

DHS, which hasn’t released the name of the officer who killed Durán Guerrero, has said the “vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.”
