Self-Represented Detainee Seeks Emergency Relief from Imminent Removal
Apr 21, 2026
A self-represented noncitizen detainee was detained on April 21, 2026. The detainee filed a habeas corpus petition challenging the detention and seeking a bond hearing, arguing the detention violated due process as indefinite. ICE notified the court on July 14, 2026 of intent to remove the detainee on July 15, 2026. The court denied the detainee's emergency motion for temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, finding the detainee failed to comply with Rule 65 procedural requirements and was unlikely to succeed on the merits given the scheduled removal date.
