MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: The parties shall be prepared to address at the TRO hearing whether Petitioner is subject to mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C. 1226(c)(1)(B), which applies to those aliens who have committed an aggravated felony subjecting them to removal under 8 U.S.C. 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii). A conviction for indecent solicitation of a child under Illinois law qualifies under 8 U.S.C. 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii), see Hernandez-Alvarez v. Gonzales, 432 F.3d 763 (7th Cir. 2005), and so would appear to be covered under 1226(c)(1)(B) via the cross reference. In addition, detention under 8 U.S.C. 1226(c) does not raise due process concerns. Demore v. Kim, 538 U.S. 510 (2003); Gonzalez v. O'Connell, 355 F.3d 1010, 1019-21 (7th Cir. 2004). Petitioner concedes she was convicted of indecent solicitation of a child (as well failing to register as a sex offender and attempted possession of a controlled substance). (Dkt. 1, pp. 4-5.) Mailed notice. (exr, ) (Entered: 05/11/2026)

Respondents' response appears to address a facial rather than an as-applied challenge. As such, by 6/5/2026, Respondents are to file a surreply addressing the merit of Petitioner's as-applied due process claim to her detention under § 1226(c). Mailed notice.
