ORDER denying 14 Motion for Miscellaneous Relief On January 30, 2026, Petitioner filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus seeking, inter alia, an individualized bond hearing. The Court granted in part and denied in part the Petition on February 24, 2026. The Court ordered Petitioner to be given an individualized bond hearing. A bond hearing was conducted on March 4, 2026, and the Immigration Judge denied bond, finding that Petitioner poses a flight risk. Petitioner's Motion for Miscellaneous Relief takes issue with this determination. He points to, for example, his family and community ties. Under 8 U.S.C. 1226(e), no court may set aside any action or decision regarding detention or release of any alien. The Court does not have the authority to sit as an appellate court over the determination of the immigration judge and to question his substantive determination on bond. This Court does not have jurisdiction to offer the relief requested by Petitioner. The Motion for Miscellaneous Relief is denied. Signed by Judge William S. Stickman on 3/11/26. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (Stickman, William) (Entered: 03/11/2026)
