About the case
The government filed Quinones v. Rodriguez Vazquez, Supreme Court No. 26-568, on October 28, 2026, seeking review of the Ninth Circuit's July 30 classwide detention judgment. It asks the Court to hold the petition pending Rhoney v. Barbosa da Cunha, No. 26-104. This is a request, not a grant of review.
Relief
The class preserved the district court's ruling that affected detainees are held under section 1226(a) and therefore must have access to bond hearings.
What's next
Response to the certiorari petition due November 30, 2026; Supreme Court action on the petition.
New on the docket, not yet reviewed
