ORDER
To ensure that the Guantánamo Review Task Force and its
Review Panel operating under Executive Order No. 13,492 have not
made any recommendations or decisions that would render
unnecessary or otherwise inefficient the further expenditure of
judicial and party resources in this matter, it is hereby
ORDERED that on or before July 31, 2009, the respondents
shall file ex parte and under seal a report detailing the status
the petitioner in this matter if he is in the Guantánamo Review
Task Force review process. The status report shall state whether
the Task Force has reviewed the petitioner’s detention, and if
not, when it intends to do so. The respondents’ counsel shall
have a continuing affirmative obligation to ascertain whether the
Review Panel has made any decisions in connection with the
recommendations and, if so, notify the court of the results of
such decisions.
