Judge Allison D. Burroughs: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. Currently before the Court is Petitioner Sebastian Alvarado Castillo’s petition for writ of habeas corpus. [ECF No. 1 ]. Respondents submit that the factual issues presented in the Petition are similar to those recently addressed by this Court in Alceus v. Moniz, No. 26-cv-13107 (D. Mass. Sep. 3, 2026). [ECF No. 7 at 1]. In that case, the Court joined other sessions of this Court, and other courts across the country, in holding that a similarly situated petitioner was entitled to a bond hearing as a matter of due process. See Alceus, No. 26-cv-13107 (D. Mass. Sep. 3, 2026), Dkt. No. 10. Respondents acknowledge that should the Court follow its reasoning in Alceus, it would reach the same result here and order a bond hearing. [ECF No. 7 at 1]. On the facts before it, and in light of Respondent’s concession, the Court does not find reason to deviate from its prior analysis. Accordingly, Petitioner’s petition for writ of habeas corpus, [ECF No. 1 ], is GRANTED. Respondents are ORDERED to provide Petitioner with a bond hearing within 10 days of this order. Respondents are ORDERED to file a status report within 14 days of this order stating whether Petitioner has been granted bond, and, if his request for bond was denied, the reasons for that denial.(CAM) (Entered: 10/30/2026)
