Sid James Velasquez, an immigration detainee, petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus challenging his detention at Golden State Annex Detention Facility. The court found that Velasquez's case mirrored legal issues in multiple prior cases where the government's detention was found unlawful. The District Court granted the habeas corpus petition and ordered Velasquez's immediate release, prohibiting re-detention unless the government demonstrates by clear and convincing evidence at a pre-deprivation bond hearing that he poses a flight risk or danger to the community.
