FINDINGS and RECOMMENDATIONS signed by Magistrate Judge Chi Soo Kim on 09/22/2026 RECOMMENDING that: The 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus be granted; Respondents be ordered to immediately release Petitioner Charanjit Singh (A# 201-274-001) and be ordered to provide Petitioner with a copy of the release order at or near the time of release. If Respondents have custody of Petitioner's documents (e.g., identification, passport, work permit, Social Security card, etc.), Respondent shall return those to Petitioner at the time of release; Respondents be enjoined and restrained from re-detaining Petitioner unless the government demonstrates, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing before a neutral decisionmak er, that Petitioner is a flight risk or danger to the community such that his physical custody is legally justified. This injunction does not address other circumstances where detention authority is established under different authority than what is presented in this case (e.g., 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c) or 8 U.S.C. § 1231); and that the Clerk be directed to enter judgment in favor of Petitioner and close this case. Referred to Judge Dale A. Drozd. Objections due within 7 days after being served with these findings and recommendations. (Deputy Clerk KS)
