Heidi Li Feldman<p>BIG. In the Abrego Garcia matter, Judge Xinis is not having any of the Trump regime's guff regarding discovery in the contempt-related proceedings in her court. The plaintiffs had asked for a status conference to deal with the nonresponsiveness of the Trump executive to questions submitted by them. Xinis held conference today and issued a ruling which starts with this: 1/ <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LawFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LawFedi</span></a></p>
Heidi Li Feldman<p>We are starting to see TROs from federal district courts setting out specific notice requirements before anybody is deported under Trump’s Alien Enemies Act proclamation.

I want to emphasize one aspect of the A.A.R.P. v. Trump (case re Venezuelans detained under Alien Enemies Act) plaintiffs' Supreme Court filing from today.

Heidi Li Feldman<p>A 🧵re developments today in the litigation regarding Venezuelans held in the Northern District of Texas. (For opaque, administrative reasons the District Court judge, Hendrix, has recaptioned the case, from A.A.R.P. v. Trump to W.M.M v. Trump. Supreme Court continues to call it by former name. When I’m referring to both I will use AARP/WMM v.
