MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court are Petitioner's habeas petition and Respondents' response to it. See ECF Nos. 1, 7 . As Respondents acknowledge, see ECF No. 7 at 2, this case presents a legal issue familiar to both parties - whether 8 U.S.C. § 1225 is applicable - that does not require a hearing. See, e.g., Singh v. Baltazar, No. 1:26-cv-00336-CNS, 2026 WL 352870, at *1 (D. Colo. Feb. 9, 2026). Respondents represent the issue this case presents "is not materially different" from the Court's prior rulings concluding that § 1225 didn't apply. ECF No. 7 at 2. Indeed, Respondents acknowledge themselves that "this Court's prior rulings would lead the Court to reach the same result here, as the facts of this case are not materially distinguishable from those cases." ECF No. 7 at 3. In light of these representations and the Court's prior analyses of this issue, see generally Singh, 2026 WL 352870, the Court GRANTS Petitioner's petition, ECF No. 1 . It is FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents shall release Petitioner from custody immediately, but no later than within 12 hours of this Order, and may not impose any additional conditions of release or supervision beyond those he was subject to immediately prior to his recent detention. Respondents SHALL FILE a status report within TWO DAYS of this Order to certify compliance. Respondents are further ENJOINED AND RESTRAINED from re-detaining Petitioner unless they demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing, that Petitioner is a flight risk or danger to the community such that his physical custody is legally justified. At any such bond hearing, the government shall bear the burden of proof. By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 2/18/2026. Text Only Entry (cnsja, ) (Entered: 02/18/2026)
