TEXT ORDER: The Court has reviewed the Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 filed by Petitioner, who is currently detained at the Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey. (ECF No. 1.) According to the Petition, Petitioner is a native and citizen of the Dominican Republic who entered the United States on or about September of 2022, was granted humanitarian parole pursuant to INA § 212(d)(5) and has resided here since. Petitioner alleges that he has complied with all conditions of his parole and ICE supervision and diligently pursued available immigration relief. Petitioner alleges he has no criminal history. Petitioner further alleges that he suffers from a painful testicular condition requiring emergency medical treatment, hypertension, and depression. Petitioner further alleges that, on or about July 11, 2026, ICE officers took him into custody after reporting to a scheduled immigration check-in appointment, and thereafter transferred to the Delaney Hall Detention Facility. Petitioner contends that his continued detention violates the Due Process Clause. (Id.) Based on the allegations in the Petition, the Court preliminarily concludes that Petitioner may be unlawfully detained under 8 U.S.C. § 1225 because he was apprehended within the United States after residing here for an extended period and therefore may instead be subject to detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1226. See Ayala Amaya v. Bondi, No. 25-cv-16428, 2025 WL 3033880 (D.N.J. Oct. 30, 2025). Accordingly, if Respondents do not contend that Ayala Amaya is meaningfully distinguishable from the circumstances presented here, Respondents shall RELEASE Petitioner within twenty-four (24) hours under the same conditions, if any, that existed prior to his detention. If Respondents contend that Ayala Amaya is distinguishable, they shall file a response to the Petition by July 22, 2026, setting forth the basis for that position. It is further ORDERED that Respondents shall ensure that Petitioner is evaluated by a licensed physician or other qualified medical provider within twenty-four (24) hours of the entry of this Order for assessment and treatment of his medical conditions. Respondents shall ensure that Petitioner is promptly provided with any medically necessary medications, treatment, and monitoring as determined by the evaluating medical provider. Within forty-eight (48) hours of the entry of this Order, Respondents shall file a certification of compliance regarding Petitioner's medical care. Petitioner may file a reply within three (3) business days after Respondents file their response. Petitioner shall not be transferred outside the District of New Jersey during the pendency of these proceedings. So Ordered by Judge Jamel K. Semper on 7/15/2026. (sms) (Entered: 07/15/2026)
