Ramon R.C. v. Samuel J. Olson, Field Office Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations, St. Paul Field Office, Immigration and Customs Enforcement; Kristi Noem, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; Todd Lyons, in his official capacity as acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement; and Joel Brott, Sherburne County Jail Sheriff

Summary

The United States District Court for the District of Minnesota adopted a magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation granting in part an amended habeas petition filed by Ramon R.C. The court ordered Respondents to provide Ramon with a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) within seven days, denied immediate release, and resolved the related temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction motions.

Holdings

1. The Report and Recommendation was accepted in full and Respondents' objection was overruled.
2. Petitioner was entitled to a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), and Respondents were ordered to provide one within seven days.
3. Petitioner's request for immediate release was denied.
4. The initial motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction was denied as moot. The amended motion was denied insofar as it sought to bar transfer out of the District of Minnesota, with the remainder denied as moot.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the Report and Recommendation recommending a bond hearing should be accepted after de novo review of Respondents' objection.
2. Whether Petitioner was entitled to a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) notwithstanding Respondents' argument that his detention was mandatory under 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2).
3. Whether Petitioner was entitled to immediate release or injunctive relief barring transfer during the action.
