ORDER signed by Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on 7/30/2026 ADOPTING the 8 findings and recommendations filed 7/16/2026, GRANTING Petitioner's 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, and DENYING Respondents' 6 motion to dism iss. Respondents are ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from continuing to detain Petitioner Ghannam D GH L Almutairi (A # 246-058-611) for more than seven (7) days from the date of this Order without a bond hearing before a neutral factfinder at which the go vernment bears the burden to justify Petitioner's detention through a showing that Petitioner poses a danger to the community or a flight risk by clear and convincing evidence. The factfinder must consider Petitioner's financial circumsta nces for bond and alternative conditions of release. At any such hearing, Petitioner shall be allowed to have counsel present. If Petitioner is not found to be a danger to society or a flight risk, Respondents must immediately release Petitioner. R espondents may impose any restrictions or conditions determined to be necessary by the factfinder at the hearing. Within five (5) days from the date of the bond hearing, Respondents are ORDERED to file a status report confirming that the hearing o ccurred, the date of the hearing, and the outcome of the hearing. If Petitioner is released, Respondents are further ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from re-arresting or re-detaining Petitioner absent compliance with constitutional protections, including s even-days' notice and a pre-deprivation hearing before a neutral factfinder where the government bears the burden to show by clear and convincing evidence that material changed circumstances demonstrate: (a) a significant likelihood of Petitio ner's removal in the reasonably foreseeable future, or (b) the government's interest in protecting the public and/or ensuring Petitioner appears at future immigration proceedings outweighs Petitioner's constitutionally protected interest in remaining free from detention. At any such hearing, Petitioner shall be allowed to have counsel present. The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment for Petitioner and close this case. CASE CLOSED. (Deputy Clerk KLY)
