ORDER GRANTING Petitioner's Application for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 1 . As Respondents chose not to submit a response to the Petition, the Court shall treat the Petitioners allegations as true and deem any challenge to the petition as waived. See Singh v. Baltazar, 819 F. Supp. 3d 1247, 1249 (D. Colo. 2026) (Respondents failure to file a timely response to the Courts order to show cause can result in a waiver of any challenge to the petition.). Pursuant to the Court's Order 4, Respondents SHALL RELEASE Petitioner within 24 hours of this Order on his own recognizance, along with all his personal belongings, without onerous conditions of release, including, without limitation, GPS monitoring, mandatory reporting, or other restrictions on his movement. Respondents shall facilitate Petitioner's transportation from the detention facility by providing all necessary identity and travel documents to return to his primary address. Respondents are ENJOINED from re-arresting or re-detaining Petitioner unless they demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing before a neutral decisionmaker, that he is a flight risk or danger to the community such that his physical custody is legally justified pursuant to 8 U.S.C § 1226(a). At any such bond hearing, Respondents shall bear the burden of proof, and Petitioner shall be allowed to have counsel present. This injunction shall remain in effect until such time as this Court, or the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, vacates this Order. On or before 11/17/26, Respondents shall file a status report certifying compliance with this Order. Petitioner's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order 2 is denied. SO ORDERED by Chief Judge Regina M. Rodriguez on 11/10/26. Text Only Entry (rmlc5, ) (Entered: 11/10/2026)
