ORDER: Before the Court is Petitioner C.-H's 1 Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus. This Court ordered Respondents to show cause why the Petition should not be granted, and in their Response, Respondents state they "are not submitting a brief in opposition to the Petition detailing the facts and circumstances of this case." Dkt. 12, p.1. Where, as here, "a party files a response to a motion but does not address all arguments which the motion raises, the party has effectively conceded the arguments which it does not address." Alfaro Herrera v. Baltazar, No. 1:25-cv-04014-CNS, 2026 WL 91470, at *5 (D. Colo. Jan. 13, 2026) (quoting Series 17-03-615 v. Teva Pharms. USA, Inc., 785 F. Supp. 3d 904, 935 (D. Kan. 2025)); see also C1.G ex rel C.G. v. Siegfried, 38 F.4th 1270, 1282 (10th Cir. 2022). And this Court has held the burden of proof at a bond hearing should be on the Government. See Guevara Garcia v. Bondi, No. 1:26-cv-01012-SKC, 2026 WL 835766, at *4 (D. Colo. Mar. 26, 2026). Accordingly, Petitioner's 1 Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus is GRANTED.IT IS ORDERED Respondents SHALL provide Petitioner with a bond hearing within SEVEN DAYS of the date of this Court's Order. At the hearing, Respondents shall bear the burden of proving flight risk by a preponderance of the evidence and dangerousness to any other person or to the community by clear and convincing evidence. Guevara Garcia, 2026 WL 835766, at *4. If a bond hearing does not occur within seven days, Respondents SHALL immediately release Petitioner from custody. Respondents shall file a status report within five days of the bond hearing to certify compliance with this Court's Order. By Judge S. Kato Crews on 10/19/2026.
