MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 3/23/2026: (Text Only Entry): The 4 motion for temporary restraining order is denied. Petitioner argues that his detention violates the Due Process Clause and the Immigration and Nationality Act. But his motion indicates that he has already received at least one § 1226(a) bond hearing, as recently as January 21, 2026, and the immigration judge denied bond after finding that petitioner was a flight risk and a danger. See Doc. 4-1, Ex. 3. The Ninth Circuit has upheld § 1226(a)'s procedures as applied to a detainee, like petitioner, who was detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). Rodriguez Diaz v. Garland, 53 F.4th 1189, 1207-14 (9th Cir. 2022). Section 1226(a)'s procedures include placing the burden on the detainee to demonstrate that he is not a flight risk or danger. Id. at 1197, 1210 (citing Matter of Guerra, 24 I. & N. Dec. 37, 40 (B.I.A. 2006)). Petitioner received the process required by 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). Petitioner argues that the burden should have been on the government to prove that he was both a flight risk and a danger to the community, citing cases in which courts considered the re-detention of a noncitizen who was released from custody following a determination under 8 C.F.R. § 1236.1(c)(8) that she was not a flight risk or danger and then was subsequently re-detained. See Doc. 4-2 at 16 (citing Carmen G.C. v. Robbins, No. 1:25-cv-01648-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3521304, at *7 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 8, 2025)). Petitioner argues that he similarly received a determination that he was not a flight risk or danger because immigration officials previously granted him deferred action on six occasions. See Doc. 4-2 at 14-16. But a grant of deferred action does not reflect a determination as to whether the individual is a flight risk. See 8 C.F.R. § 236.22(b)(6). Even assuming, without deciding, that petitioner were correct that the IJ should have placed the burden on the government to prove that petitioner was a danger, petitioner fails to show any error in placing the burden on petitioner to show that he was not a flight risk. Petitioner has therefore failed to show a likelihood of success on his claims. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings, including the preparation of findings and recommendations on the petition. (Deputy Clerk VMG) (Entered: 03/23/2026)
