TEXT ORDER TEXT ORDER: According to petitioner, respondents are presently detaining him under the mandatory detention provisions of 8 U.S.C. § 1225. (ECF No. 1 pp. 3, 7.) I preliminarily conclude that petitioner is being unlawfully detained under 8 U.S.C. §1225 because petitioner was apprehended inside the United States after residing here for an extended period, and therefore he should have been detained under 8 U.S.C. §1226. See Ayala Amaya v. Bondi, No. 25-cv-16428, 2025 WL 3033880, D.N.J. Oct. 30, 2025). If respondents contend that Ayala Amaya is factually distinguishable, they shall file an expedited answer to the Petition within 3 days of this Order, and petitioner shall file any reply within 3 days of the answer. Otherwise, respondents shall RELEASE petitioner within 24 hours under the same conditions, if any, that existed prior to his detention, including, but not limited to, release: (1) within the State of New Jersey; (2) without the imposition of additional conditions (such as ankle monitors or electronic tracking devices); (3) with all clothing and outerwear worn at the time of detention, or other appropriate attire; and (4) with all personal property and documents that were seized at the time of detention. So Ordered by Judge Edward S. Kiel on 5/6/2026. (gn ) (Entered: 05/06/2026)
