On or before September 18, 2026, Petitioner shall respond to Respondents' supplemental briefing and shall additionally address the following: (1) whether Petitioner is seeking a bond hearing; (2) if Petitioner's removal proceedings were dismissed but have since been reimplemented, how that development affects Petitioner's analysis and what relief Petitioner now seeks; and (3) if Petitioner's removal proceedings were never dismissed, what relief Petitioner seeks.
