Yes, and just like with habeas corpus, after the fact. All court decisions are after the fact. Courts cannot rule on something that hasn't happened yet.

Courts cannot rule on something that hasn't happened yet. They do it all the time, or try to- every time they issue a judicial order of restraint or a court-ordered Notice of Injunction, sometimes described as a "status quo order".
