ORDER GRANTING WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS Based on the foregoing IT IS HEREBY ORDERED the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ) is GRANTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents must provide each Petitioner with a constitutionally adequa te bond hearing pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), where the government bears the burden of establishing dangerousness or flight risk by clear and convincing evidence, and consistent with the other requirements described above, no later than Apri l 7, 2026 for Petitioner Ramirez-Dircio and no later than April 10, 2026 for Petitioner Salazar-Lopez. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if bond is granted, Respondents are ORDERED to IMMEDIATELY RELEASE the Petitioner from detention. The Court has rec eived notice of the hardship other petitioners have incurred in their efforts to satisfy bond through ICE payment portals, and, therefore, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioners be afforded until May 9, 2026, to satisfy any monetary bond conditions . IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents are PERMANENTLY ENJOINED from invoking 8 C.F.R. § 1003.19(i)(2) to continue either Petitioner's detention, as the Court has already found that the regulatory automatic stay is facially unconstit utional and adopts that finding here. See generally Herrera v. Knight, 798 F. Supp. 3d 1184 (D. Nev. 2025). IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if a constitutionally adequate bond hearing is not conducted by the aforementioned dates as to either Petitione r, Respondents must IMMEDIATELY RELEASE Petitioner from custody on his own recognizance. This means Respondents are PROHIBITED from imposing release conditions that substantially interfere with each Petitioner's liberty, such as electronic mon itoring, without having established the reasonableness of those restrictions, by clear and convincing evidence, at a pre-deprivation hearing IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents are PERMANENTLY ENJOINED from detaining either Petitioner during t he pendency of his current removal proceedings unless and until it is determined that his detention is warranted under § 1226(a) after a constitutionally adequate bond hearing. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents are PERMANENTLY ENJOINED from detaining either Petitioner pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A). IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Parties shall file a joint status report by April 13, 2026. The status report shall detail whether the ordered bond hearings occurred, wh ether bond was granted or denied, and, if denied, the reasons for that denial. If bond was granted or the bond hearing has not occurred, the status report shall confirm the date and time of Petitioners' release from detention in compliance wit h this Order. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if bond is denied as to either Petitioner, Federal Respondents must (1) ATTACH the order of the immigration court to the joint status report AND (2) PROVIDE the contemporaneous record of the bond hearing t o Petitioners' counsel IMMEDIATELY upon request. Finally, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 25(d), IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the current Secretary of Homeland Security-Markwayne Mullin-is SUBSTITUTED for Respondent Kristi Noem. T he Clerk of Court is kindly instructed to update the docket accordingly. The Clerk of Court is further instructed to enter judgment accordingly and close this case. The Court retains jurisdiction to enforce its order and judgment. Petitioner may move to reopen this case to enforce the judgment without filing a separate case. The Court also retains jurisdiction to consider Petitioner's request for fees and costs pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2412. Petitioner may file an application for fees and costs consistent with the deadlines and requirements set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 2412 and this Court's Local Rules of Practice 54-1 and 54-14. Signed by Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 4/6/2026. Markwayne Mullin added. Kristi Noem terminated. (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - RJDG)
