Background
The petitioners filed a habeas petition challenging their custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The judgment states that the petitioners were no longer in ICE custody.
Ruling

Disposition
For the reasons stated in the court’s October 17, 2025 order, the court ordered, adjudged, and decreed that the case be closed. The judgment does not state that the petition was dismissed with or without prejudice.
