FINDINGS and RECOMMENDATIONS signed by Magistrate Judge Chi Soo Kim on 10/22/26 RECOMMENDING that 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus be granted; Respondent be ordered to immediately release petitioner Ruben Eli Arancibia Gonzalez (A-246-130-7 12) and be ordered to provide petitioner with a copy of the release order at or near the time of release. If respondent have custody of petitioner's personal possessions and documents (e.g., identification, passport, work permit, Social Security card, etc.), respondent shall return those to petitioner at the time of release. Respondent be enjoined and restrained from re-detaining petitioner unless the government demonstrates, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation, constituti onally adequate 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 authori ty is established under different authority than what is presented in this case. Given petitioner's pro se status, respondent 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 be directed to enter judgment in favor of petitioner and close this case. Referred to Judge Dale A. Drozd. Objections to F&R due within 7 days of this order. (Deputy Clerk KML)
