Minute Order Requiring Response to Petition. In his 1 Petition, Petitioner Dennis Jose Pina Aranda alleges that DHS appealed the Immigration Judge's decision granting Petitioner bond on August 20, 2025. Pursuant to Chapter 6.3(a)(4)(b) of Part III of the EOIR Policy Manual, "[t]he stay remains in effect until the Board decides the appeal, or 90 days from the filing of the appeal, whichever occurs first." Accordingly, the Court ORDERS Respondents TO SHOW CAUSE on or before March 25, 2026, why the stay of the IJ's bond decision has not expired and why Petitioner should not be entitled to post bond pursuant to the decision of the Immigration Judge.
