TEXT ORDER: This Court is in receipt of Petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus. (ECF No. 1). Having reviewed the Petition, this Court preliminarily concludes that Petitioner is being unlawfully detained under 8 U.S.C. §1225 because Petitioner was apprehended inside the United States after residing here for an extended period, and therefore he should have been detained under 8 U.S.C. §1226. See Buele Morocho v. Warden Philadelphia FDC, --- F.4th ---, ---, 2026 WL 2546223, at *2-10 (3d Cir. 2026). If Respondents contend that Buele Morocho is factually distinguishable, or that Petitioner has a criminal history or a final order of removal, they shall file an expedited answer to the Petition within 3 days of this Order, and Petitioner shall file any reply within 3 days of the answer. Respondents may redact any sensitive information belonging to petitioner or persons not before this Court but may not redact names or signatures of immigration officials or other public employees. Otherwise, Respondents shall RELEASE Petitioner within 24 hours under the same conditions, if any, that existed prior to his detention, including, but not limited to, release: (1) within the State of New Jersey; (2) without the imposition of additional conditions (such as ankle monitors or electronic tracking devices); (3) with all clothing and outerwear worn at the time of detention, or other appropriate attire; and (4) with all personal property and documents that were seized at the time of detention. It is further ORDERED that if no answer is filed within 5 days of this Order, the Clerk shall CLOSE this matter. So Ordered by Judge Susan D. Wigenton on 9/2/2026. (cds) (Entered: 09/02/2026)
