ORDER. Pursuant to the Court's Order 5, Respondents SHALL RELEASE Petitioner within 24 hours of this Order on his own recognizance, along with all his personal belongings, without onerous conditions of release, including, without limitation, GPS monitoring, mandatory reporting, or other restrictions on his movement. Respondents shall facilitate Petitioner's transportation from the detention facility by providing all necessary identity and travel documents to return to his primary address.

At any such bond hearing, Respondents shall bear the burden of proof, and Petitioner shall be allowed to have counsel present. This injunction shall remain in effect until such time as this Court, or the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, vacates this Order. On or before October 28, 2026, Respondents shall file a status report certifying compliance with this Order. Given the Court's Order, Petitioner's Emergency Motion 2 is DENIED AS MOOT.
