ORDER GRANTING UNOPPOSED PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS AND ORDERING IMMEDIATE RELEASE by Magistrate Judge Daniel S. Roberts 1 . The Court therefore finds that Petitioner is presently in custody of Respondents in violation of the Constitution o r laws or treaties of the United States; thus, a Writ of Habeas Corpus should issue pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 compelling his immediate release. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that: (A) Respondents shall immediately release Petitioner RICHARD DAVID M ONTIEL MORA (A-244-326-301) from immigration custody subject only to the conditions of release in place at the time of his August 7, 2026, re-detention. Respondents may not impose as a condition of this release electronic monitoring or any other cond ition that Petitioner was not subject to at the time of his re-detention on August 7, 2026. That does not mean that immigration authorities may never change the conditions of Petitioner's release pending determination of his removal case, only t hat they must comply with due process to do so. (B) Respondents shall not re-detain Petitioner without first providing Petitioner with notice and a hearing before a neutral decisionmaker to contest the basis for his re-detention; (C) Respondents shal l provide Petitioner with a copy of this Order at or near the time of release. (D) Within two days of the date of this Order, Respondents shall file with the Court a status report confirming Petitioner's release. The Court will issue Judgment consistent with this Order. IT IS SO ORDERED. (SEE ORDER FOR FURTHER DETAILS.) (lkr)
