No. C-11-2228 EMC

v.
UNITED STATES CITIZENSHIP AND
IMMIGRATION SERVICES, et al.,

ORDER RE SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEF
FROM DEFENDANTS
(Docket No. 109)

Defendants.
___________________________________/

14
15

Plaintiff has submitted a brief, in which he essentially argues that he needs two sealed

16

transportation letters to the carrier (not just one), one to purchase the ticket and one to actually board

17

the plane. In the alternative, Plaintiff asks that, if there is to be only one sealed transportation letter,

18

then the Court should instruct the carrier to unseal the letter so that Plaintiff may purchase a ticket

19

and then accept the opened letter for boarding.

20

The Court hereby orders Defendants to provide a supplemental brief by July 2, 2012,

21

responding to Plaintiff’s request for relief. The brief should address, inter alia, whether Plaintiff

22

may legitimately need two transportation letters addressed to the carrier and whether the issuance of

23

two such letters would prejudice Defendants. The brief should also address whether the alternative

1

request for relief is a practical way of proceeding, particularly given that the transportation letter on

2

its face asks the carrier not to board Plaintiff if there is evidence of tampering with the letter. The

3

brief should be supported by a declaration as necessary.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
