TEXT ORDER: The Court having reviewed the parties' filings in this matter (ECF No. 1, 3 - 4, 8 ), and the Government having admitted that this matter is not meaningfully distinguishable from this Court's decision in Aguilar Ramos v. Soto, No. 25-15315, 2025 WL 3251447 (D.N.J. Nov. 21, 2025), and other decisions in this District interpreting 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2), the Court holds that Petitioner is subject to detention only under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). It is therefore ORDERED that, in accordance with 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), within seven (7) days of the date of entry of this Text Order, Respondents shall provide Petitioner with an individualized bond hearing before an immigration judge who shall assess whether he presents a flight risk or a danger to the community. The Government shall not transfer Petitioner out of New Jersey until this bond process is complete. The Government shall report the outcome of Petitioner's bond hearing within three (3) days of the immigration judge issuing a decision on the bond issue. So Ordered by Judge Michael A. Shipp on 2/23/2026. (jab) (Entered: 02/23/2026)
