TEXT ORDER: Petitioner JOSE LUIS QUEZADA QUEZADA is a citizen of Ecuador who allegedly entered the United States without inspection in May 2021, has no criminal history, and has a United States citizen child. (ECF No. 4 -1, at 3-4.) He was detained on June 16, 2026 (id.) and contends that he is unlawfully detained under § 1225 and is entitled to a bond hearing or release under § 1226(a). In Mejia v. Cabezas, No. 25-CV-17094, 2025 WL 3294405, at *2 (D.N.J. Nov. 14, 2025), this Court found noncitizens who entered the United States without inspection and were later arrested in the interior of the United States could only be detained under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a); see also Correa v. Delaney Hall, No. 26-4876, 2026 WL 1803202, at *3 (D.N.J., 2026) (finding that a petitioner who was paroled into the country under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(d)(5)(A) and detained years later was entitled to a bond hearing under § 1226(a)). It is, therefore, ORDERED that in accordance with 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), within 7 days of the date of entry of this Text Order, Respondents shall provide Petitioner with an individualized bond hearing before an immigration judge who shall assess whether he presents a flight risk or a danger to the community, pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 236.1(c)(8), (d)(1). It is further ORDERED that Petitioner shall have reasonable notice of the bond hearing, an opportunity to prepare, and be permitted to reschedule the hearing outside the seven-day period, if necessary, without seeking this Court's intervention. It is further ORDERED that within three (3) days of that bond hearing, Respondents shall file a written notice of the outcome of that hearing with this Court and request to close this matter. Alternatively, if Respondents contend that this case is factually or legally distinguishable, they shall file an expedited answer within five (5) days of the date of entry of this Text Order; Petitioner may submit a reply within three (3) days of his receipt of the same. The Text Order at ECF No. 2, which stays Petitioner's transfer from New Jersey, shall REMAIN IN EFFECT until this matter concludes. The Motion for an Order to Show Cause at ECF No. 4 shall be TERMINATED considering the relief provided. So Ordered by Judge Robert Kirsch on 07/01/2026. (pdm) (Entered: 07/01/2026)
