SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 22 รข€“ A woman from Guatemala with a pending case in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals had a GPS ankle monitor imposed by ICE on October 2. ICE told her to return with plane tickets for herself and her son by December 1.

On October 14 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 came to the US after her husband, who she married when she was 11 years old, nearly killed her with a machete. She now has an infant child whom she is nursing.

  The case has been assigned to Judge J. Paul Oekken.

This case is Morales Martinez, et al. v. Genalo, et al., 1:26-cv-9019 (Rearden)

   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
