ORDER REQUESTING SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FROM RESPONDENTS AND DENYING PETITIONER'S MOTION FOR PRODUCTION OF PETITIONER AT THE HEARING: This Court has reviewed the Petition, ECF 1, and the Response to the Petition, ECF 14 .

Were there any conditions attached to his release? (3) What is the status of Petitioner's asylum claim? Is it still pending, or has it been dismissed? Has Petitioner had an asylum hearing and has there been any determination on any asylum application? If not, is there an asylum hearing scheduled and if so, when is it scheduled? (4) What is the nature of the immigration court hearing that is currently scheduled for November 18, 2026? What documentation or information was provided to Petitioner about the nature and purpose of that hearing? Respondents are ORDERED to provide this supplemental information by 2:00 PM on Monday, August 18, 2025.
