TEXT ORDER: On November 4, 2025, this Court issued a decision and order in Alvarez Ortiz v. Noem, Case No. 25-cv-960, Docket Item 16 (W.D.N.Y. Nov. 4, 2025), finding that noncitizens who are present in the United States without having been admitted or paroled are not subject to mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2) but instead are subject to detention under section 1226. Accordingly, the respondents are hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or before November 14, 2025, why, in light of that decision, (1) the petition in this case should not be granted, and (2) the Court should not order that the petitioner receive a bond hearing at which the government bears the burden to demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence, that the petitioner is a danger to the community or a flight risk and at which the immigration judge must consider non-bond alternatives to detention or, if setting a bond, the petitioner's ability to pay. SO ORDERED. Issued by Hon. Lawrence J. Vilardo on 11/5/2025. (RFI) (Entered: 11/05/2025)
