Judge Myong J. Joun: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. In their Response to Habeas Petition, Respondents acknowledge that the legal issues presented in this petition are similar to those addressed in Hilario Rodriguez v. Moniz, 25-cv-12358. [Doc. No. 8 at 1]. I incorporate by reference the reasoning in my September 18, 2025 Order granting bond in the Hilario Rodriguez case, [25-cv-12358 Doc. No. 22], and find that Petitioner Elmara Sofia Timoteo Alves Correia (“Petitioner”) is subject to Section 1226(a)’s discretionary detention framework and is thus eligible for bond. The Petition for Writ of Habeas is GRANTED. Respondents are ORDERED to provide Petitioner with a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) within 10 days of this Order. The Respondents are ENJOINED from denying bond to Petitioner on the basis that he is detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2). The Respondents are further ORDERED to file a status report within 24 hours of the bond hearing, stating whether Petitioner has been granted bond, and, if his request for bond was denied, the reasons for that denial.

Judge Myong J. Joun: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. On 1/28/26, I granted Ms. Timoteo Alves Correia's Petition for Writ of Habeus Corpus and ordered Respondents to provide her with a bond hearing and, within 24 hours of said bond hearing, to file a status report. On 1/30/26, Respondents filed a motion to transfer Petitioner out of the District to a detention facility in Houston, Texas. Doc. No. 10 . It does not appear that counsel for Respondents conferred with Petitioners counsel prior to filing the instant motion. Counsel for Respondents is directed to confer with Petitioner's counsel, and if there is no agreement, Petitioner shall forthwith file a response to the Respondents motion.

Judge Myong J. Joun: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered re 10 Motion to transfer the Petitioner. I agree with Petitioner that there is no good reason, and none has been advanced by the Respondents, to move her out of the District, especially given that a custody redetermination hearing is scheduled for 2/2/26. For the reasons stated in Petitioner's Opposition, Doc. No. 12, the Respondents' Motion to transfer the Petitioner, Doc. No. 10, is DENIED. (SKY) (Entered: 01/30/2026)
