ENDORSED ORDER granting Hendrick Cornelio Diaz Castillo's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. 1). The Government concedes the petitioner is entitled to a bond hearing based upon the Eleventh Circuit's opinion in Hernandez Alvarez v. Warden, 175 F.4th 1258 (11th Cir. 2026). The Court orders the Respondents to bring Petitioner before an immigration judge for an individualized bond hearing within ten days of the date of this Order. The hearing must include--and the resulting order must reflect--consideration of the factors set forth in In re Guerra, 24 I. & N. Dec. 37 (BIA 2006), and the government must bear the burden of proof. If Respondents are unable to ensure Petitioner receives a bond hearing that complies with this Order within ten days, they must release him under reasonable conditions of supervision. The Clerk is DIRECTED to terminate any pending motions and deadlines, enter judgment, and close the case. Signed by Judge Sheri Polster Chappell on 10/20/2026. (NMC) (Entered: 10/20/2026)
