ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE: By 5:00 p.m. on April 17, respondents are ordered to show cause why the petition should not be granted for substantially the same reasons articulated in the Court's November 18, 2025, order in Sarmiento Guerrero v. Noem, --- F. Supp. 3d --- (E.D.N.Y. 2025). Should respondents acknowledge that the instant petition presents no meaningful distinction from Sarmiento Guerrero, they shall either afford Montenegro a bond hearing or release him in either case, on or before April 21, absent further order of this Court. See Guartazaca Sumba v. Crowley, No. 25-CV-13034, 2025 WL 3126512, at *5 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 9, 2025). In that case, the parties shall file a status report on or before April 17 that addresses Montenegro's release status. Otherwise, petitioner should serve his reply by 5:00 p.m. on April 17. Petitioner shall serve this Order on the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York as required by law and, in addition, by electronic mail, addressed to the Chief of the Civil Division. Ordered by Judge Eric R. Komitee on 4/8/2026. (JRS) (Entered: 04/08/2026)
