Petition by man against ICE custody may provide new path to release for others (www.theguardian.com)

Rodney Taylor, a Liberia-born man who is a double amputee and is missing three fingers on one hand has filed a habeas corpus petition in federal court seeking release from Georgia’s Stewart detention center, after being held there by Ice for eight months.

“What is at stake in this case … is one of the most profound individual interests recognized by our legal system: whether Ice may unilaterally take away – without a lawful basis – his physical freedom, ie, his ‘constitutionally protected interest in avoiding physical restraint,’” the petition says.

The action is “a canary in the coal mine for what’s about to happen” nationwide, said Sarah Owings, Taylor’s immigration attorney. “[T]housands of habeas claims are going to be filed across the country,” she said, after a Board of Immigration Appeals decision on 5 September dramatically curtailed the immigration system’s ability to release detainees while awaiting decisions on their status.

This is making immigration attorneys turn to federal district courts, observers told the Guardian.

Legal petitions aren't the "get a bunch of signatures on a list" petitions. It's basically just asking the court to do a thing.

But considering the SC is gargling Trump's wrinkled shit cover scrotum, you're right that it's not going to do a thing.

Although I do not disagree with that description, that was not the visual I wanted while stuffing my mouth with cookies.

My apologies. Hopefully the amazingness of the cookies overpowered the grossness of the description.

Honestly, they were a bit salty.

I love salty cookies! Once in high school a girl made day of the dead biscuits, but instead of tablespoons of salt she used cups. I still ate that shit, but my prescription amphetamines make me constantly dehydrated.
