ORDER denying 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Petitioner claims that the length of his detention is improper and represents a violation of his due process rights. The Court denies the petition because Petitioner was afforded adequate due process by being provided with a bond hearing. See Borbot v. Warden Hudson Cnty. Corr. Facility, 906 F.3d 274, 278-79, 279 n.4 (3d Cir. 2018) (finding that petitioner's due process challenge for prolonged detention failed where petitioner was previously provided with a bond hearing).
