MURGUIA, Chief Judge:

On November 19, 2025, this court administratively stayed the district court’s

November 7, 2025, permanent injunction to the extent that it enjoins the

federalization of the Oregon National Guard. Dkt. No. 96. On December 29,

2025, this court issued an order directing the parties “to confer about the

procedural next steps for this appeal” “[i]n light of the United States Supreme

Court’s denial of the federal government’s application for a stay in Trump v. Illinois, No. 25A443 (U.S. Dec. 23, 2025).” Dkt. No. 104. The order also directed

the parties to “file either: (a) a joint proposal if agreement is reached or (b) separate

proposals if no agreement is reached.” Id.

The parties filed their separate proposals on January 7, 2026. Dkt. Nos. 106

& 107. Defendants represented that “[w]ithout prejudice to any future arguments

Defendants might make in this litigation, Defendants withdraw their request for a

stay pending appeal and agree to dissolution of the administrative stay.” Dkt No.

107. Defendants also represented that “Oregon National Guard members are

currently in transit to Fort Bliss, Texas, where they will demobilize, and that the

demobilization process will take approximately 7-14 days to complete.”

The administrative stay entered by this court on November 19, 2025, Dkt.

No. 96, is hereby VACATED.
