MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 12/4/2025.The Court has reviewed the 41 Joint Status Report filed by the parties in compliance with this Court's 35 Order. The Court is alarmed to learn that Plaintiff Guevara-Alcantar was ordered released on bond December 1, 2025 by IJ Daughtery, but remains in detention despite multiple attempts by his family members to pay the bond using ICE's online portal, when after each attempt they received an error message stating "there are no matching or no releasable aliens for this bond payment request." See ECF No. 41 at 3. Defendants assert that bond must be paid in person due to unspecified "limitations on disclosure of information due to privacy issues which prohibit acceptance of the bond online" and additional information regarding these privacy issues has been requested by Plaintiffs' counsel. Id.The Court finds that Defendants' failure to expediently accept the bond payment by Plaintiff Guevara-Alcantar is unlawfully prolonging his detention. This prolonged detention is inconsistent with the Court's intent in its 35 Order that Plaintiff Guevara-Alcantar be released immediately upon the granting of bond.Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Mr. Guevara-Alcantar be IMMEDIATELY RELEASED from Defendants' custody. Mr. Guevara-Alcantar shall have until January 19, 2025 to satisfy the bond conditions. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants shall file a notice of compliance with this Order no later than 5:00 p.m. TODAY, December 4, 2025. Notice of Compliance is due by 12/4/2025 at 5:00 p.m. (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - IML) (Entered: 12/04/2025)
