S.D.N.Y. · August 26, 2025

Court S.D.N.Y.
Decided August 26, 2025
Docket 1:25-cv-06523 (JLR)
Citation 798 F. Supp. 3d 400
Judge Rochon, District Judge
Disposition Relief granted in part
Nationality China

The government gave no notice of revocation and no interview before re-detaining a man released in 2018, violating its own regulations and due process; release was ordered, and transfer after filing did not defeat jurisdiction.

Caution Granted in part. The court's description of Westley v. Harper as reaching the merits of the section 241.4(l) claim is in tension with the project's earlier note that Westley was dismissed for want of jurisdiction, and the brief directs that neither characterisation be published until the Westley opinion itself is read.
