Svitlana Doe v. Noem, No. 1:25-cv-10495-IT (D. Mass.). On March 25, 2025, the Department of Homeland Security published a Federal Register notice terminating the categorical parole programs for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV), 90 Fed. Reg. 13611. The notice said parole that had not already expired by April 24, 2025, would terminate on that date unless the Secretary made an individual determination to the contrary.
On April 14, 2025, Talwani granted in part the plaintiffs’ emergency motion. Pending further court order, she stayed the notice insofar as it revoked, without case-by-case review, previously granted CHNV parole and work authorization before each noncitizen’s originally stated end date. She also stayed individualized USCIS-account notices of that revocation. A stay is not a statute. It is not a Supreme Court holding. The Supreme Court later stayed this order.
