ORDER: Before the Court is Travis Onandi Hall's 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. On May 8, 2026, Petitioner sought a bond hearing based on a federal court order which found his detention unlawful. Dkt. 1, p.6. The immigration judge held a hearing on May 13, 2026, and ordered release upon payment of a $10,000 bond. Id. The bond order did not include any additional terms or conditions of release. Id. However, eight days after the bond hearing, ICE placed a GPS ankle monitor on Petitioner. Id. Petitioner argues the imposition of conditions not imposed by the immigration judge violates his Fifth Amendment procedural and substantive due process rights. After requesting an extension of time to respond to the Petition, Respondents filed a Response in which they informed the Court they "have determined not to submit a brief in opposition to the Amended Petition detailing the facts and circumstances of this case." Dkt. 13, pp.1-2. "Imposing after-the-fact release conditions, such as GPS wearables and check-ins, that the immigration judge did not herself impose... constitutes custody for habeas purposes... At bottom, Respondents may not impose additional conditions after an IJ has ordered release on a bond and set conditions of release, as here." Cortez v. Guadian, No. 1:26-cv-00294-CNS, 2026 WL 265688, at *2 (D. Colo. Feb. 2, 2026) (internal quotations omitted) (citing Orellana Juarez v. Moniz, 788 F. Supp. 3d 61, 69 (D. Mass. 2025); see also Batz Barreno v. Baltasar, No. 25-cv-03017-GPG-TPO, 2026 WL 120253, at *2 (D. Colo. Jan. 15, 2026). Accordingly, the imposition of GPS ankle monitoring on Petitioner is a violation of his due process rights and his Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is GRANTED.IT IS FURTHER ORDERED Respondents SHALL NOT subject Petitioner to conditions of release that are inconsistent with the exact terms as set by the immigration judge at the May 13, 2026, bond hearing. Any monitoring technology or devices SHALL BE REMOVED from Petitioner immediately. Respondents SHALL FILE a Status Report within two days of the date of this Order certifying compliance. SO ORDERED by Judge S. Kato Crews on 9/25/2026. Text Only Entry (skclc4) (Entered: 09/25/2026)
