Y.T.D. v. Andrews

E.D. Cal. · September 18, 2025

Court E.D. Cal.
Decided September 18, 2025
Docket 1:25-CV-01100 JLT SKO
Citation 2025 WL 2675760
Disposition Relief granted in part
Nationality Ethiopia
Third country Kenya, Eritrea, Somalia, or Benin (mentioned to the petitioner; none secured)

The court enjoined third-country removal without written notice, a minimum of ten days to raise a Convention Against Torture claim, and reopening or fifteen days to seek reopening, but declined to order release under Zadvydas.

Caution Preliminary injunction converted from a temporary restraining order with merits briefing to follow, although the decretal paragraph says 'permanently enjoined'; the bond hearing within 30 days, which the government requested, appears in the analysis but not in the numbered decretal paragraphs; the judge is not named anywhere in the printout; the assurances material comes from the court's quotation of ICE's July 9, 2025 policy, not from any assurance in this case.
