Woman from Venezuela Is Detained by ICE in 26 Fed Asks Asylum so Files Habeas in SDNY by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 22 – A woman from Venezuela was detained by ICE in 26 Federal Plaza with a pending application for asylum. She filed a habeas corpus petition in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, where Inner City Press found it.   The petition says she was detained on September 21 at a check-in appointment.   Judge Lewis J. Liman to whom the case was assigned, and who recently ordered a man released from his courtroom, or after a stop at 26 Federal Plaza to get his belonging, has gently asked that the $5 fee be paid. This case is Torres v. Genalo, et al., 1:26-cv-8232 (Liman)    In 40 Foley Square, Judge Broderick has a habeas proceeding filed by a man from El Salvador - more on X for Subscribers here and Substack here Judge Woods' case is Cisse v.
