D.D.C. enjoins EO 14168 prison provisions (Jones v. Trump) and extends Kingdom injunction; government appeals

Jones appeal pending at D.C. Circuit; Kingdom injunction extended, later partially stayed by the D.C. Circuit (June 2026) with a separate district-court injunction still blocking BOP actions. Update, Sept. 23, 2026: As to the Kingdom injunction specifically (this entry also covers the separate Jones v. Trump appeal, which is unaffected): On Sept. 18, 2026, a per curiam D.C. Circuit panel (Wilkins, Walker, and Garcia, JJ.) dismissed as moot the government's motion to stay the district court's since-expired June 17, 2026 injunction and denied its motion to stay the district court's (Lamberth, J.) August 26, 2026 reissued injunction against BOP Program Statement 5260.01 (D.C. Cir. Nos. 26-5236 and 26-5310, consolidated), holding the government had not shown a likelihood of success on its arguments that the policy was arbitrary and capricious, that the injunction violated the PLRA, or that classwide relief was improper (Walker, J., dissenting); the clerk was directed to set a merits briefing schedule, and the reissued injunction remains in effect.
