EAST BAY SANCTUARY COVENANT, 
et al., 
Plaintiffs, 
v. 
 
WILLIAM BARR, et al., 
Defendants. 
Case No. 19-cv-04073-JST   
 
 
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 
REGARDING STAY 
  
 
 
On July 16, 2019, Plaintiffs East Bay Sanctuary Covenant et al., filed a complaint 
challenging an interim final rule and final rule, which rendered ineligible for asylum most persons 
entering the United States who cross the border between ports of entry or who did not first apply 
for and receive a denial of protection from persecution or torture while in a third country through 
which they transited en route to the United States.   
On June 24, 2022, given the government’s ongoing review of the rules, and the possible 
modification or rescission of those rules, the parties requested, and the Court granted, a stay 
pending the completion of the government’s review.  The Court required the parties to update the 
Court every 90-days on the status of the rulemaking.  The parties last filed a status report on 
February 23, 2023.  
It appears to the Court that a continuing stay of this case is warranted pending resolution of 
the related case, No. 18-cv-06810, which is currently on appeal in the Ninth Circuit.  Within 10
