MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on 4/10/2026:This matter is before the Court on Petitioner's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO"). (ECF No. 2 .) The Court has reviewed Petitioner's motion and finds Petitioner has met his burden establishing a TRO is warranted under the factors articulated in Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20 (2008). Petitioner has established: (1) a likelihood of success on his claims that Respondents violated the Immigration and Nationality Act and/or the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause; (2) Petitioner will suffer irreparable harm in the absence of a TRO; (3) the balance of equities tip in Petitioner's favor; and (4) a TRO is in the public interest. The Court has repeatedly ruled on the issues presented in the instant case. See, e.g., Morales-Flores v. Lyons, No. 1:25-CV-01640-TLN-EFB, 2025 WL 3552841, at *3 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 11, 2025). Accordingly, Petitioner's Motion for TRO is GRANTED. To return Petitioner to the status quo ante litem, Respondents are ORDERED to IMMEDIATELY RELEASE Petitioner [A# 221-489-543] under the same conditions he was released prior to his current detention. At the time of release, Respondents must return all of Petitioner's documents and possessions. Respondents shall file a notice of compliance with the Court's order to immediately release Petitioner by April 13, 2026. Respondents are ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from re-arresting or re-detaining Petitioner absent compliance with constitutional protections, including seven-days' notice and a pre-deprivation hearing. Respondents may apply to the Court for modification or dissolution of the TRO on two days' notice to Petitioner. Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(4). The bond requirement of Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(c) is waived. The Clerk of the Court shall serve this Order and all documents filed in this case on Respondents with a copy via email to: usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov. The Clerk of the Court is also directed to serve California CIty Detention Facility with this order. This matter is referred to the assigned Magistrate Judge for further proceedings pursuant to Local Rule 302 and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). SO ORDERED.
