ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE and Electronic Service upon the US Attorney's Office re ECF No. 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, filed by Roberto Mendoza Raymundo. Counsel for Respondents are directed to promptly file a notice of appearance and respond to the petition by 5:00 p.m. on April 22, 2026.The Court notes that unlike recent petitions before this Court, the instant petition appears to contest the constitutionality of a bond hearing that has already occurred pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), in which Petitioner was denied bond and has appealed that determination to the Board of Immigration Appeals. See ECF No. 1 paras. 59-60, 67. The government shall address that issue specifically and any other pertinent issues, and shall serve a copy of the response on Petitioner, with proof of such service to the Clerk of this Court. As part of its response, the government is directed to file, under seal if necessary, any records, documents, or other information in Petitioner's immigration file, as well as any underlying records relied upon in its submission not yet filed by Petitioner, and records indicating whether any property was seized from Petitioner at the time of arrest.Petitioner is directed to file his reply, if any, by 5:00 p.m. on April 24, 2026, with proof of service.Service of a copy of this order, together with a copy of the petition, will be made by the Clerk of this Court through the electronic case filing system to the United States Attorney.To preserve the Court's jurisdiction pending a ruling on the petition, Petitioner shall not be removed from the United States unless and until the Court orders otherwise. See, e.g., Kuprashvili v. Flanagan, No. 25-cv-5268, 2025 WL 2382059 (S.D.N.Y. June 30, 2025) (collecting cases staying removal to maintain the status quo). Additionally, in light of Petitioner's interest in participating in further proceedings before this Court and maintaining adequate access to legal counsel throughout these proceedings, Petitioner shall not be transferred to a facility outside of this District or the Southern District of New York. See Samb v. Joyce, No. 25-cv-6373, ECF No. 3 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 4, 2025). Ordered by Judge Hector Gonzalez on 4/17/2026. (GEM)
