ORDER
Based on the present record, the Court finds that Petitioner is not a class member
of the Bond Eligible Class certified in Maldonado Bautista v. Santacruz, No. 5:25-CV-
01873-SSS-BFM, 2025 WL 3288403 (C.D. Cal. Nov. 25, 2025) because Petitioner was
apprehended on arrival in the United States and the certified class is defined to include
only noncitizens who “were not or will not be apprehended upon arrival.” Id. at *9. The
Court further finds that Petitioner is currently detained under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and
that Petitioner is not subject to mandatory detention. See J.A.M. v. Streeval, No. 4:25-
CV-342-CDL, 2025 WL 3050094 (M.D. Ga. Nov. 1, 2025); P.R.S. v. Streeval, No. 4:25-
CV-330-CDL, 2025 WL 3269947 (M.D. Ga. Nov. 24, 2025). 	Accordingly, Petitioner’s
motion for habeas corpus relief is granted to the extent that Respondents shall provide
Petitioner with a bond hearing to determine if Petitioner may be released on bond under
§ 1226(a)(2) and the applicable regulations. See 8 C.F.R. §§ 236.1 & 1236.1.1
1 The brevity of this order is appropriate given that the issue presented is exactly the same as the issue
previously decided on numerous occasions by the Court and yet Respondents insist upon denying the
relief that the Court has found is required.
