MINUTE ORDER issued on 4/28/2026 by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins: On 4/27/2026, Petitioner filed a 9 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order seeking his immediate release from immigration custody because, he argues, he is "being detained indefinitely, unlawfully, and without any foreseeable prospect of removal." (See Doc. No. 9 at 2.) However, in Respondents' 8 Answer to Petitioner's 9 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, they note that Petitioner was detained following his conviction for transport of narcotics with intent to sale. (See Doc. No. 8 at 3-4, 23-24.) Respondents contend that this conviction subjects Petitioner to mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)(1)(A), which requires that the Government "shall take into custody any alien who," has committed an enumerated criminal offense, including, as relevant here, the illicit trafficking of any controlled substance. 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)(1)(A); Id. § 1182(a)(2)(C). The Supreme Court has held that mandatory detention under § 1226(c) passes Constitutional muster. Demore v. Kim, 538 U.S. 510, 531 (2003). Accordingly, Petitioner has not demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of his claim that his continued detention violates the Immigration and Nationality Act or his Fifth Amendment right to Due Process, and on that basis his 9 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order is DENIED. This matter is REFERRED to the assigned Magistrate Judge for further proceedings. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk CRS) (Entered: 04/28/2026)
