ORDER signed by Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on 8/5/2026 ADOPTING 9 Findings and Recommendations and GRANTING 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas. Respondents are ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from continuing to detain Petitioner Rafael Antonio Tavaraz 037-051-217 for more than 7 days from this order without a bond hearing before a neutral factfinder at which the government 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. If Petitioner is not found to be a danger to society or a flight risk, Respondents must IMMEDIATELY RELEASE Petitioner. Within 5 days from the bond hearing, Respondents are DIRECTED to file a status report confirming that the hearing occurred, 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, while subject to 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c), absent compliance with constitutional protections, including a minimum of 7 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 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 such that no alternative to detention can mitigate that risk. The court is DIRECTED to enter judgment for petitioner and close this case. CASE CLOSED. (Deputy Clerk AMW) (Entered: 08/06/2026)
