MARY DE ANDA-YBARRA, et al.,
Respondents.
ORDER
Before the Court is the Government’s Motion to Amend the Court’s April 9, 2026, Order.
See Doc. 11. The Government has demonstrated that Petitioner’s removal to Ukraine is reasonably
foreseeable and imminent. See Doc. 11 at 1–2. Therefore, the Court grants the motion in part,
subject to the following limitations.
The Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) may direct Petitioner to appear to
effectuate her removal to Ukraine. DHS may arrest and briefly detain Petitioner if she fails to
comply. DHS’ authority to detain is strictly limited to carrying out Petitioner’s removal to Ukraine.
If it fails to remove Petitioner by April 30, 2026, it must release her under the terms of the Court’s
prior Order. See Doc. 9. In that event, DHS may not rearrest or redetain Petitioner without further
authorization from this Court.
By May 7, 2026, the Government must file a status report informing the Court that it has
either removed Petitioner or released her in accordance with this Order.
