MEMORANDUM AND ORDER: For the reasons set forth in the attached Memorandum and Order, the Petition for a writ of habeas corpus is GRANTED in part. (ECF No. 1 .) Respondents must coordinate with Petitioners counsel and thereafter release Petitioner, without any electronic monitoring, including but not limited to GPS monitoring, into the physical care of their counsel or another mutually agreed upon person at the earliest possible time agreed upon by the parties, but no later than February 13, 2026, at 11:00 p.m. Respondents must release Petitioner with all of his belongings that are in Respondents possession, including but not limited to identification cards, clothing, and money. Respondents shall confirm compliance with these directives, including by identifying the individual to whom Petitioner was released and when and how Mr. Martinez Enamorados belongings were returned to him, in a filing on the docket by February 13, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Additionally, pending the issuance of any final removal order against Mr. Martinez Enamorado, Respondents are enjoined from denying Mr. Martinez Enamorado bond in any subsequent proceeding on the basis that he must be detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. §1225(b), absent a change in relevant circumstances consistent with this Order.At this time, the Court reserves ruling on the request for attorney's fees and costs under the Equal Access to Justice Act set forth in the Petition. Mr. Martinez Enamorado may file an application for attorney's fees and costs incurred in pursuing this action by May 14, 2026. The Court concludes that the other arguments set forth in the Petition for granting Mr. Martinez Enamorado the requested relief, including arguments that the detention violates the APA and the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, are now moot and unnecessary to resolve. The Show Cause hearing scheduled for February 17, 2026, at 12:30 p.m. in the Alfonse D'Amato U.S. Courthouse is therefore adjourned. The matter is held in abeyance. Ordered by Judge Nusrat J. Choudhury on 2/13/2026. (MMC) (Entered: 02/13/2026)
