MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Petitioner Jesus Enrique Padron Chacin's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, ECF No. 1, and Emergency Motion for An Order Under the All Writs Act, ECF No. 2. In the Petition, Petitioner requests immediate release from immigration detention. See ECF No. 1 at 13. Having reviewed the Petition, the Court ORDERS Petitioner to, no later than two calendar days from the entry of this Order, (1) serve Respondents with copies of the Petition and any accompanying papers, along with a copy of this Order, by e-mail and mail pursuant to the service requirements outlined in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(i); and (2) promptly file proof of such service on the docket. Counsel for Respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance. Within five (5) calendar days of service, Respondents are ORDERED TO RESPOND to the Petition and are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to why the Petition should not be granted. See, e.g., Yassine v. Collins, No. 1:25-cv-00786-ADA-SH, 2025 WL 1954064, at *1 (W.D. Tex. July 7, 2025) (explaining that while § 2243 refers to a three day deadline, this requirement is "subordinate to the district court's authority to set deadlines" itself, and granting respondents a fourteen day deadline to respond in order to "give [r]espondents adequate time to brief the issues" (quotations omitted)). Further, pursuant to the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), and in order to preserve the Court's jurisdiction, Respondents SHALL NOT REMOVE Petitioner from the District of Colorado or the United States unless or until this Court or the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit vacates this Order. See also Vizguerra-Ramirez v. Choate, et. al, Case No. 1:25-cv-881, D. Colo., ECF No. 11 at 45 (collecting cases); F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 603 (1966); Local 1814, Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n v. New York Shipping Ass'n, 965 F.2d 1224, 1237 (2d Cir. 1992). Given the Court's order that Respondents shall not remove Petitioner from this judicial district, the Court DENIES AS MOOT Petitioner's emergency motion, ECF No. 2. By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 9/22/2026. Text Only Entry (cnsja, ) (Entered: 09/22/2026)

MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Petitioner's habeas petition, ECF No. 1, and Respondents' Response to it, ECF No. 7. Petitioner states that although his order of removal became final over six months ago, ECF No. 1 at 10, his removal is not significantly likely to occur in the reasonably foreseeable future, id. at 8. In their response, Respondents state that they are "not submitting a brief in opposition to the Petition detailing the facts and circumstances of this case." ECF No. 7 at 1-2. In Zadvydas v. Davis, the Supreme Court stated that if a noncitizen with a final order of removal has been detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a) for more than six months and "provides good reason to believe that there is no significant likelihood of [their] removal in the reasonably foreseeable future, the Government must respond with evidence sufficient to rebut that showing" in order for the noncitizen's continued detention to remain reasonable. 533 U.S. 678, 701 (2001). In light of this, as well as Respondents' representation that they "are not submitting a brief in opposition to the Petition," ECF No. 7 at 1-2, the Court finds that Petitioner has meet his un-rebutted burden of establishing that his continued detention is unreasonable. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Petitioner's habeas petition, ECF No. 1. It is ORDERED that Respondents shall release Petitioner from custody immediately, but no later than within 24 hours of this Order, under reasonable conditions of supervision pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(3), to the extent any such conditions "are appropriate in the circumstances," Zadvydas, 533 U.S. at 700. Respondents SHALL FILE a status report within TWO DAYS of this Order to certify compliance. Additionally, Respondents are further ENJOINED AND RESTRAINED from re-detaining Petitioner unless they demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing, that Petitioner is a flight risk or danger to the community such that his physical custody is legally justified. At any such bond hearing, the government shall bear the burden of proof. By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 10/13/2026. Text Only Entry (cnsja, ) (Entered: 10/13/2026)
