Judge Brian E. Murphy: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. Respondents submit that the legal issues presented in this Petition concerning detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1225 are similar to those recently addressed by this Court in Rincon v. Hyde, [810 F. Supp. 3d 101 (D. Mass. 2025)]. Dkt. 7 at 1. However, the documents Respondents have provided indicate Petitioner is subject to detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), rather than 8 U.S.C. § 1225. See Dkt. 7 -1 at 1 (Warrant for Arrest of Alien pursuant to section 1226). In either case, Petitioner is entitled to a bond hearing. See Rincon, 810 F. Supp. 3d at 116; Gomes v. Hyde, 804 F. Supp. 3d 265, 278 (D. Mass. 2025)Accordingly, the Petition is GRANTED in part. Respondents shall release Petitioner by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 1, 2026, unless, before that time, Petitioner is provided a bond hearing which comports with the standards articulated in Hernandez-Lara v. Lyons, 10 F.4th 19, 26 (1st Cir. 2021), and in which the presiding immigration judge (IJ) considers alternatives to detention. Respondents are thereby ORDERED to file a status report by 5:00 p.m. on Monday, October 5, 2026, detailing their compliance with this order. If a bond hearing was held, the status report shall state whether Petitioner has been granted bond, the date, time, and location of his release, or, if his request for bond was denied, the reasons for that denial. Respondents should include a copy of the IJs decision with the status report. Any request for fees should be filed within the deadlines set by the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412.(MAC) (Entered: 09/24/2026)
