MEMORANDUM ORDER - IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Petitioner's Motion at ECF No. 2 is DENIED insofar as Petitioner seeks injunctive relief barring his transfer to another facility, and insofar as Petitioner seeks a T.R.O. However, the Court will proceed to consider Petitioner's Motion in so much as it requests relief via a P.I. based upon his remaining claim that he cannot be detained pursuant to § 1225(b)(2) and must be released. Therefore, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents shall file and serve a written response to Petitioner's Motion at ECF No. 2 no later than 11:59 PM on December 9, 2025. Aside from any additional arguments Respondents wish to make, the Response shall specifically address: 1) what statute governs Petitioner's detention and why; as well as 2) Matter of Yajure Hurtado, 29 I. & N. Dec. 216 (BIA 2025) and its position relative to the vast number of courts that have rejected the reasoning articulated therein. Petitioner may, but is not required to, file and serve a Reply to any Response submitted by Respondents on or before 11:59 PM on December 12, 2025. The Court will schedule a hearing as necessary, and as more fully stated in said Memorandum Order. Signed by Judge Stephanie L. Haines on 12/2/2025. (dlg) (Entered: 12/02/2025)

OPINION - Having considered the entire record in this case and the relevant legal principles, the Court holds that Mr. Calzado Diaz is entitled to a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and all related legal principles within seven (7) days of the date of this Opinion and grants his Habeas Petition insofar as he seeks such a bond hearing. Because Mr. Calzado Diaz's other request are unavailing (or mooted by the Court's partial grant of Mr. Calzado Diaz's Habeas Petition), the Court denies the balance of his Habeas Petition at ECF No. 1 and his Motion for a P.I. at ECF No. 2 . An appropriate Order follows, and as more fully stated in said Opinion. Signed by Judge Stephanie L. Haines on 12/15/2025. (dlg)
