The New York Times carries an Associated Press update announcing that Shahid Haque filed an emergency Ninth Circuit petition for Audemio Orozco-Ramirez and obtained a temporary stay. The report also notes the Billings protest that formed after ICE arrested Audemio at a regular check-in and prepared to deport him within days.
The appellate filing stopped an immediate deportation and brought a Montana detention case to a national audience. It preserved time for judicial review when ordinary agency channels had failed to address Audemio's request for protection as a crime victim.
