A longtime U.S. resident held during removal proceedings at a California City facility was ordered released after a court found he was wrongly denied a bond hearing.

Apr 1, 2026California City, CA

A noncitizen who had lived in the United States for an extended period without having been admitted was detained by U.S. immigration authorities during removal proceedings at the California City Detention Facility. A federal court found he was entitled to a pre-deprivation bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and ordered his immediate release. The court ruled that if the government seeks to re-detain him, they must provide a proper bond hearing where he can contest flight risk and community safety concerns.
