MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on March 11, 2026: This matter is before the Court on Petitioner's Ex-Parte Motion for Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO"). (ECF No. 11 .) The Court has reviewed Petitioner's motion and finds Petitioner has met her burden establishing a TRO is warranted under the factors articulated in Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20 (2008). Petitioner has established: (1) a likelihood of success on her claims that Respondents violated the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause for prolonged detention; (2) Petitioner will suffer irreparable harm in the absence of a TRO; (3) the balance of equities tip in Petitioner's favor; and (4) a TRO is in the public interest. Accordingly, Petitioner's Motion for TRO is GRANTED. Respondents must provide a bond hearing within three (3) days of this Order where Respondents bear the burden of demonstrating by clear and convincing evidence before a neutral decisionmaker that Petitioner poses a danger to the community or a flight risk. The decisionmaker must consider Petitioner's financial circumstances for bond and alternative conditions of release. Hernandez v. Sessions, 872 F.3d 976, 991 (9th Cir. 2017). At the hearing, Petitioner shall be allowed to have counsel present. If Petitioner is not found to be a danger to society or flight risk, Respondents must immediately release Petitioner. Respondents may impose any restrictions or conditions determined to be necessary by the neutral decisionmaker at the hearing. Respondents must include a statement of compliance and identify the outcome of the bond hearing in their answer/response to Petitioner's § 2241 petition. Respondents may apply to the Court for modification or dissolution of the TRO on two days' notice to Petitioner. Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(4). The bond requirement of Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(c) is waived. SO ORDERED. (TEXT ONLY ENTRY) (Deputy Clerk MDK) (Entered: 03/11/2026)
