Court Orders Bond Hearing for Detained Immigrant in Removal Proceedings
Jun 25, 2026·Location: New Orleans, LA
A detained immigrant was held pending removal proceedings without being afforded a bond hearing. He challenged his detention through a habeas corpus petition in federal court. Following the Sixth Circuit's decision in Lopez-Campos v. Raycraft, the court granted the petition and ordered respondents to provide him with a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) within ten days or release him from custody.
