ORDER. 1. The Petition, ECF No. 1, is GRANTED to the extent that respondents are directed to provide petitioner with a bond hearing before an Immigration Judge within seven (7) days of this Order. 2. Respondents SHALL NOT deny petitioner a bond hearing on account of the fact that petitioner has not received an initial custody determination by the Department of Homeland Security. 3. At the bond hearing, respondents SHALL bear the burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence to maintain petitioner's detention. If release is granted, respondents SHALL NOT impose additional release conditions other than those ordered by the Immigration Judge. Furthermore, the government SHALL NOT continue to detain the petitioner under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.19(i)(2), on the grounds that it is administratively appealing petitioners eligibility for bond under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). 4. The parties SHALL, within five (5) days of petitioner's bond hearing, file a joint status report stating whether petitioner was granted bond, and if not, the reasons why bond was denied. 5.
