ORDER AND FINDINGS and RECOMMENDATIONS signed by Magistrate Judge Chi Soo Kim on 9/16/2026 DENYING petitioner's 3 motion for appointment of counsel without prejudice. IT IS RECOMMENDED the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus be granted; Respondents be ordered to immediately release petitioner Jose Angel Martinez Saavedra (A-245-552-172) and be ordered to provide petitioner with a copy of the release order at or near the time of release; If respondents have custody of petitioner's documents (e.g., identification, passport, work permit, Social Security card, etc.), respondents shall return those to petitioner at the time of release; Respondents be enjoined and restrained from re-detaining petitioner unless the government demonstrates, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing before a neutral decisionmaker, that petitioner is a flight risk or danger to the community such that his physical custody is legally justified; This injunction does not address other circumstances where detention authority is established under different authority than what is presented in this case (e.g., 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c) or 8 U.S.C. § 1231); Given petitioner's pro se status, respondents be directed to file, within 7 days of the adoption of these findings and recommendations, a status report addressing petitioner's status; and the Clerk of the Court be directed to enter judgment in favor of petitioner and close this case. Referred to Judge Dena M. Coggins. Objections to F&R due within 7 days. (Deputy Clerk KLY) (Entered: 09/16/2026)
