MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 3/26/2026: The court has reviewed Petitioner's 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and 2 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. The court has previously addressed the legal issues raised by Count Two of the Petition. See e.g., Selis Tinoco v. Noem, 1:25-cv-01762-DC-JDP, 2025 WL 3567862 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 14, 2025), Labrador-Prato v. Noem, 1:25-cv-01598-DC-SCR, 2025 WL 3458802 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 2, 2025), and D.L.C. v. Wofford, 1:25-cv-01996-DC-JDP, 2026 WL 25511 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 5, 2026). The court is contemplating ruling directly on the 1 Petition, with the understanding that the court will also consider any arguments made and exhibits submitted in support of the Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a)(2) ("Before or after beginning the hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction, the court may advance the trial on the merits and consolidate it with the hearing."); see also 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The court shall summarily hear and determine the facts, and dispose of [a petitioner's habeas petition] as law and justice require."); A.R. v. Chestnut, No. 1:26-cv-00551-KES-SAB, 2026 WL 227112, at *1 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 28, 2026) (considering preliminary injunction and merits of habeas petition simultaneously). Respondents shall file an Opposition or Statement of Non-Opposition to the 2 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order by 12:00 PM on 3/31/2026. In their response, Respondents shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that materially distinguish it from the court's prior orders listed above. Petitioner may file a Reply by 4/14/2026. Both parties should address whether they oppose the court ruling directly on the Petition, albeit as to Count Two only, to the extent a ruling on that Count entitles Petitioner to the relief sought in the Petition. The matter is not set for a hearing though the court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk CRS) (Entered: 03/26/2026)

MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 4/30/2026: In Respondents' 6 Opposition to Petitioner's 2 Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order, Respondents distinguish Petitioner's claim from those cited in the court's 5 Order by noting that Petitioner was detained after Respondents learned that Petitioner had been charged with misdemeanor assault subsequent to his prior release from immigration detention. (See Doc. Nos. 6 at 2; 6-1; 6-2.) Respondents attach documentation showing that Petitioner was specifically targeted for immigration detention due to this arrest, and that a warrant for his immigration detention was issued prior to his arrest. (Id.) Petitioner did not file a Reply or otherwise rebut Respondents' assertions, and his time to do so has expired. (See Doc. No. 5.) This court has previously found that where the Government asserts a non-pretextual change in circumstance warranting a noncitizen's detention pending removal proceedings, the proper remedy for the Government's failure to provide the noncitizen with a pre-deprivation bond hearing is a post-deprivation bond hearing. (See, e.g., Chateauneuf v. Chestnut, No. 1:26-cv-01073-DC-JDP, 2026 WL 523695, at *5 (E.D. Cal. Feb. 25, 2026); Mendez Roblero v. Bondi, No. 1:26-cv-01550-DC-CSK, 2026 WL 773740, at *4-*5 (E.D. Cal. Mar. 19, 2026). Accordingly, for the reasons explained in Chateauneuf and Mendez Roblero, Petitioner's 2 Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order is GRANTED IN PART as follows: (1) Respondents shall, within fourteen (14) days of issuance of this Order, provide Petitioner Fernando Jose Gadea Duarte (A-244-339-915) with a bond hearing before an Immigration Judge at which the Government shall bear the burden of justifying Petitioner's continued detention by clear and convincing evidence; and (2) Petitioner's request for immediate release is DENIED. The Clerk of the Court is DIRECTED to serve this Order on the California City Detention Center. This matter is REFERRED to the assigned Magistrate Judge for further proceedings.

MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 8/26/2026: Pursuant to Local Rule 123, the court finds that these actions, Case No. 2:26-cv-01100-DC-CKD and 1:26-cv-06789-KES-FJS, are related because both cases involve overlapping parties, claims, events and/or questions of fact or law. Thus, the court ORDERS that Case No. 1:26-cv-06789-KES-FJS is REASSIGNED to U.S. District Judge Dena M. Coggins and Magistrate Judge Carolyn K. Delaney. All future filings shall reflect the judge reassignment and use Case No. 1:26-cv-06789-DC-CKD. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk CRS) (Entered: 08/26/2026)
