TEXT ORDER The Court has reviewed the Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 filed by Petitioner Ismael Aguilar Garca ("Petitioner"), who is currently detained at the Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey. (ECF No. 1.) Petitioner alleges he is a native and citizen of Mexico who entered the United States approximately four years ago, and has remained here since. On or about August 3, 2026, Petitioner alleges he was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and transferred to Delaney Hall Detention Facility, where he remains detained. Petitioner alleges that he has no criminal history, and no final order of removal. Petitioner contends that his continued detention is unlawful and violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment and the Administrative Procedures Act. (Id.) If Respondents determine that Petitioner (1) does NOT have a criminal history, and (2) is NOT subject to a final order of removal, Respondents shall release Petitioner within twenty-four (24) hours of the entry of this Order (a) in the State of New Jersey, if Petitioner was initially arrested in New Jersey, or otherwise as close to the place of initial arrest as reasonably practicable; (b) without additional conditions (such as ankle monitors or other electronic tracking devices); and (c) with all personal property seized at the time of arrest in the same condition as it existed immediately prior to arrest. Within three (3) days after entry of this Order, Respondents shall file either: (a) a letter certifying Petitioner's release pursuant to this Order; or (b) a letter, not to exceed two pages, identifying (1) whether Petitioner has a criminal history, (2) whether Petitioner is subject to a final order of removal, and (3) the statutory authority under which Petitioner continues to be detained. Upon receipt of that letter, the Court will determine whether an expedited scheduling order or other proceedings are necessary. So Ordered by Judge Karen M. Williams on 8/7/26.
