MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 9/10/2026: The court has reviewed Petitioner's 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and 3 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. Noncitizens present without admission who are apprehended in the interior of the United States are subject to discretionary detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1226, not mandatory detention under § 1225(b)(2)(A). See Rodriguez Vazquez v. Bostock, No. 25-6842, 2026 WL 2196424, at *3 (9th Cir. July 30, 2026). Further, this court has previously held that noncitizens are at minimum entitled to a post-deprivation bond hearing when they are detained by immigration authorities under 8 U.S.C. §§ 1226(a), 1227(a) for remaining in the U.S. after the expiration of their previously-granted immigration status (see, e.g., Dandamudi v. Warden, No. 1:26-cv-03567-DC-CSK, Doc. No. 8 (E.D. Cal. May 29, 2026) (finding prudential exhaustion purposes satisfied by relief sought, granting temporary restraining order, and ordering a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) where the petitioner had overstayed their H-1B status); Gutierrez Nunez v. Warden of the Golden State Annex Det. Fac., No. 1:26-cv-03932-DC-CKD, No. 8 (E.D. Cal. June 16, 2026) (same for the noncitizen who had overstayed a B-2 visa). The court is contemplating ruling directly on the 1 Petition, with the understanding that the court will also consider any arguments made and exhibits submitted in support of the Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. See A.R. v. Chestnut, No. 1:26-cv-00551-KES-SAB, 2026 WL 227112, at *1 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 28, 2026) (considering preliminary injunction and merits of habeas petition simultaneously). Respondents shall file an Opposition or Statement of Non-Opposition to the 3 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order by 12:00 PM on 9/14/2026. In their response, Respondents shall: (1) substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that materially distinguish it from Rodriguez Vazquez and this court's prior cases cited above, and (2) attach (i) a transcript or audio recording of the custody redetermination hearing Petitioner received after Petitioner's March 2026 detention by ICE, (ii) a copy of the Immigration Judge's order, and (iii) evidence of the advance notice Petitioner was provided about the time and date of the hearing. Petitioner may file a Reply by 9/28/2026. Both parties should address whether they oppose the court ruling directly on the Petition. The matter is not set for a hearing though the court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk CRS) (Entered: 09/10/2026)
