ORDER granting in part and denying in part 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. The Court ORDERS as follows: (1) Respondents must provide Petitioner with a bond hearing before an immigration judge within seven days of the date of this Order unless Petitioner requests an extension of that deadline; any extensions successfully requested by Petitioner toll the seven-day period. Respondents must ensure that there is a contemporaneous record of the bond hearing. (2) At the bond hearing, Respondents shall bear the burden of proof to show by clear and convincing evidence that Petitioner is a danger to the community or a flight risk. If the IJ abuses their discretion when applying the law to Petitioner's request for bond, Petition er may seek relief from that violation in a subsequent habeas petition. (3) If a bond hearing is not provided within seven days of the date of this Order and Petitioner has not requested an extension of that deadline, he shall be released from IC E custody within 24 hours on appropriate conditions of supervision, taking into account his ability to pay a bond. (4) Respondents must file a Status Report with the Court either confirming that Petitioner received a bond hearing--and the results of that hearing--or otherwise confirming his release by 11/6/2026. Signed by Judge Lauren King. (KRA) (cc: Petitioner via USPS)
