MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on 5/1/2026: 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 his detention violates the Immigration and Nationality Act and 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. (ECF No. 2 .) To return Petitioner to the status quo ante litem, Respondents are ORDERED to IMMEDIATELY RELEASE Petitioner Dalvir S. (A # 220-352-083) 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 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 shall file a notice of compliance with this Order by 5/5/2026. Respondents are further ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why the Court should not grant the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and enter judgment in favor of Petitioner. Respondents shall file responsive papers by 5/8/2026. Petitioner may file a reply by 5/15/2026. The parties shall indicate whether they request a 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. Petitioner shall immediately serve this Order, along with Petitioner's A # 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 directed to serve Central Valley Annex with a copy of this Order. SO ORDERED. (TEXT ONLY ENTRY) (cc: Central Valley) (Deputy Clerk MDK) (Entered: 05/01/2026)
