Immigration detainee with humanitarian parole arrested during routine check-in

Apr 2026

Jose A.M.L., who entered the U.S. in May 2021 and was granted humanitarian parole, was arrested and detained by ICE during a routine check-in in April 2026 despite complying with all immigration conditions. The petitioner challenged his detention arguing it violated due process rights without a pre-deprivation hearing. The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California granted his habeas corpus petition and ordered his immediate release with permanent injunction against re-detention without constitutional protections.
