AMENDED MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Jeremy D. Peterson on 5/6/2026: In its opposition to the petition for writ of habeas corpus, respondent provides evidence showing that petitioner was afforded a bond hearing, at which the immigration judge denied release. (ECF No. 6-2.) Respondent argues that, by not appealing the immigration judge's order, petitioner has not exhausted his administrative remedies. (ECF No. 6 .) Petitioner is ordered to file a reply by 5/20/2026 that addresses respondent's argument, and petitioner shall indicate whether he has appealed the immigration judge's order. (Text Only Entry).
