ORDER by Chief District Judge Kenneth J. Gonzales. The Court has considered Petitioner's Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, Doc. 1, the Government's Response, Doc. 6, and Petitioner's Reply, Doc. 7. In its Response, the Government states that it is "not submitting a brief in opposition to the Petition detailing the facts and circumstances of this case." Doc. 6 at 1. For that reason, and those stated in Oliva Rodas v. U.S. Immigr. & Customs Enf't, 2026 WL 2163442, at *2 (D.N.M.), the Court grants the Petition. Within seven (7) business days of this Order, the Government shall provide Petitioner with a bond hearing where Petitioner bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that conditions of release would adequately address any risk of flight or danger to the community. Should the Government fail to provide Petitioner a bond hearing within seven (7) business days, it must release him. The Government shall file a status report within ten (10) business days of this Order certifying compliance. [THIS IS A TEXT-ONLY ENTRY. THERE ARE NO DOCUMENTS ATTACHED.] (tah) (Entered: 09/14/2026)
