That case, consolidated with a parallel challenge over Syria's TPS termination, reached the Supreme Court together under the lead docket name Mullin v. Doe. Field agents have been reportedly instructed to hold off on arresting Haitians solely because their TPS lapsed — at least for now. The exception: people who already have final orders of removal from an immigration judge remain fair game for arrest regardless of the TPS ruling. What legal status do former TPS holders fall back into? When TPS lapses, a person reverts to whatever immigration status they held before receiving it — which for many Haitians means no lawful status at all.
