CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER. Today, copies of this Order and the Petition will be served via-email on the United States Attorney's Office, who will represent Respondent(s). It is ORDERED that email service constitutes formal service, and nothing further is required of Petitioner at this time. Within 3 calendar days, counsel for Respondent(s) shall file a notice of appearance. The Court has reviewed the Petition and supporting materials and finds that the threshold issue is whether Petitioner is subject to discretionary detention under 8 U.S.C. 1226(a), or mandatory detention under 1225(b). Based on its prior decisions on this issue, including Tejeda Perez v. Oddo, No. 3:26-cv-00745, Doc. 8, at 5 (W.D. Pa. May 28, 2026); Shoyimov v. Oddo, No. 3:26-cv-00848, 2026 WL 1541154, at *1 (W.D. Pa. June 2, 2026) (slip copy); Sanchez Calzada v. Mullin, No. 3:26-cv-00897, Doc. 8, at *1-2 (W.D. Pa. June 1, 2026), the Court tentatively intends to grant the Petition to the extent it requests a bond hearing under 1226(a). If Respondents believe there are factual or legal differences between this case and the other cases cited above, they may file a response to the Petition within 14 calendar days of the date of service. Responses are limited to 15 pages; replies require leave of court; and, otherwise, counsel shall comply with the form and timing for briefing outlined in the undersigned's Ps&Ps (https://www.pawd.uscourts.gov/content/cathy-bissoon-chief-district-judge). A copy of this Order will be mailed to Petitioner at his address-of-record. Signed by Chief Judge Cathy Bissoon on 8/18/2026. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (jmm) (Entered: 08/18/2026)
