District Judge Angel Kelley: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. re 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (2241), filed by Jose Santos Lopez-Lopez. Before the Court is Petitioner Jose Santos Lopez-Lopez's Emergency Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. [Dkt. 1 ]. Respondents submit that the facts of this petition are "similar to those in Gomes Cardoso v. Hyde, No.25-cv-13935-AK, 2026 WL 468200 (D. Mass. Feb. 19, 2026)," "[s]hould the Court follow its logic and reasoning in Gomes Cardoso, it would likely reach the same result here," and "the Court may resolve this Petition without further briefing or oral argument." [Dkt. 8 ]. In Gomes Cardoso, the Court held that full due process protections apply to non-citizens who have been paroled into the United States under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(d)(A), and that the Due Process Clause is violated when non-citizens who have been paroled into the United States under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(d)(A) are subject to mandatory detention without notice or opportunity to be heard. On the facts before it, the Court does not find reason to deviate from the analysis presented in Gomes Cardoso. Accordingly, Petitioner is entitled to a bond hearing. Petitioner's Petition [Dkt. 1 ] is GRANTED. Respondents are ORDERED to provide Petitioner with a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) within 10 calendar days of this Order. Respondents are ENJOINED from denying Petitioner bond on the basis that they are detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2). The parties are ORDERED to file a status report within 14 calendar days of this Order stating whether Petitioner has been granted bond, and, if the request for bond was denied, the reasons for that denial.
