About the case

Fritz Emmanuel Lesly Miot v. Trump is one of the administration's most consequential TPS cases because it asks whether DHS can terminate Haiti TPS on an accelerated schedule affecting a large protected population. On June 25, 2026, the Supreme Court held in the consolidated TPS cases that the TPS statute bars nonconstitutional challenges to TPS termination determinations and that the Miot respondents' equal-protection claim is unlikely to succeed. On August 5, 2026, after the Supreme Court judgment and D.C. Circuit mandate, the district court confirmed that its February 2026 stay of the Haiti TPS termination is no longer in effect, while ordering further scheduling for the underlying case.

Relief

The plaintiffs sought to preserve Haiti TPS during litigation; the Supreme Court decision removes the interim postponement order, leaving any remaining merits or remand proceedings to continue without that relief.

What's next

The next major milestone is the parties' proposed schedule and further district-court proceedings on discovery and any remaining constitutional claims.
