All rise!
Judge Subramanian: I have composed a list of prospective jurors who, based in their questionnaire answers, I don't proposed to do individual Q&A with. The list of people and place is so long, I though it was an appendix to Lord of the Rings
[laughter]
Assistant US Attorney: Why don't we have the next juror in line review the binder with court staff, to save that time?
Judge: OK
AUSA: We have given two copies of the binder to your staff.
Judge Subramanian: I assume we'll soon get the thumbs up jurors are ready

All rise!
Judge Subramanian: So we have a slew of motions, we'll go through them, then other issues the parties would like to address. Let's start with summary charts at Docket 203 - have you worked that out to moot it?
AUSA: We'll give drafts early
Comb's lawyer Alexandra Shapiro: We will raise issues about specific charts.
Judge: I agree, I'll need to look at them one by one, on a line item basis. So 203 is denied as moot. Now 205, Doctor Hughes. Granted in part and denied in part. Coercive control is out

OK - now at Alien Enemies Act hearing in SDNY on continuing injunction. US has asked to decertify the class - Judge Hellerstein denies it. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Judge Hellerstein: Absent these decisions, people would be removed. Justice Sotomayer has shown the preparations the Government made to remove people. That there would be irreparable harm is obvious. The jails in El Salvador are not appetizing to say the least
Judge Hellerstein: Senator Hollen went and made findings about the conditions... The Supreme Court freezing things will allow the courts to consider these things without danger
DOJ lawyer: The Government disagrees. Aliens are removed all the time

Judge Hellerstein: I've read the papers.
