MINUTE ORDER ORDER (Text Only Entry). The Court has reviewed the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, the Motion to Appoint Counsel, and the ex parte Application for Temporary Restraining Order. ECF Nos. 1, 3, 4. Ruling on the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and the Application, the Motion to Appoint Counsel, and Motion for Temporary Restraining Order is reserved at this time. Respondents shall file any opposition to the Petition and the application for TRO by July 10, 2026. Any response must include Petitioner's (A-File # 201460347) full and complete Form I-213, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants or notices, and any other portions of Petitioner's A-File relevant to the determination of the issues presented in the Petition, including available documentation related to any asserted violations of release conditions. Failure to timely respond shall be construed as a non-opposition. See L.R. 230(c). Respondent is directed to indicate on or before the filing deadline (1) whether they are requesting a hearing; (2) whether they agree to convert the request for a TRO into a preliminary injunction without further briefing; and (3) whether they request additional briefing on the merits of the petition. Depending on the content of the filings, the Court may set a hearing or may rule on the papers. In the meantime, pending a ruling on the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, the Court orders that Respondents shall not transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 608 (1966) (noting the court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction."). Signed by Visiting Judge Rebecca L Pennell on 7/7/2026: (Text Only Entry). (Deputy Clerk LLH) (Entered: 07/07/2026)

ORDER signed by Visiting Judge Rebecca L Pennell on 7/16/2026 GRANTING Petitioner's Petition for Habeas Corpus, 1 ; DENYING Petitioner's Motion for Appointment of Counsel 3 and Motion for TRO 4 as moot. Within 14 days of the date of service of this order, unless Petitioner consents to a later date, Respondents SHALL provide Petitioner (A# 201460347) with an individualized bond hearing before an immigration judge that complies with the requirements set forth in Singh v. Holder, 638 F.3d 1196 (9th Cir. 2011), and where "the government must prove by clear and convincing evidence that [Petitioner] is a flight risk or a danger to the community to justify denial of bond," id. at 1203. If Respondents fail to provide a timely bond hearing in accordance with this order, Respondents are ordered to immediately release Petitioner. Within two days of the date of the bond hearing, Respondents are directed to file a notice in this court certifying compliance with this Order. CASE CLOSED. (Deputy Clerk LMS) (Entered: 07/16/2026)
