ORDER: IT IS SO ORDERED. Pernalete Quinteros Petition for habeas release (Doc. 78 ) is DENIED as to himself individually. The Government must provide Petitioner with a bond hearing pursuant to § 1226(a) before an immigration judge within seven days of the date of this order. At the hearing, the government bears the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that Petitioner is a danger to the community or a flight risk. If a bond hearing is not provided within seven days of the date of this Order, Petitioner shall be released immediately from custody. The Government must file a Status Report with the Court either confirming that Petitioner received a bond hearing and the results of that hearing or otherwise confirming his release by October 14, 2026. If the immigration judge does not order Petitioner released, the Government is prohibited from transferring Petitioner from this jurisdiction, i.e., the District of Montana, for seven days following the immigration judge's decision, unless such transfer is necessary for medical evaluation, medical treatment, release, or extenuating circumstances.
