TEXT ORDER - The Court has reviewed the Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 filed by Petitioner Edison Gustavo Illescas Pangol, a citizen of Ecuador, who is presently detained at Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey. (ECF No. 1.) Petitioner alleges that he entered the United States on September 15, 2024 and filed an application for asylum. Petitioner further alleges that he was taken into ICE custody on February 16, 2026, based on an alleged failure to report under the Compliance Assistant Reporting Terminal program. Petitioner asserts that he is unlawfully detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b), and that his continued detention violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment. (Id.) Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Respondents shall SHOW CAUSE, on or before April 8, 2026, why the Petition should not be granted. Petitioner may file a reply within three (3) business days after Respondents file their response. Petitioner shall serve a copy of this Order and the Petition upon Respondents within two (2) business days of the entry of this Order and shall promptly file proof of service on the docket.
