A native and citizen of Armenia who entered the United States in 2021 was arrested at a regular ICE check-in in June 2026 and remains detained at Adelanto ICE Processing Center. He has a final removal order, and an immigration judge denied his motion to reopen. He filed a habeas petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 on June 25, 2026, challenging the legality of his present detention primarily on due process grounds rather than seeking review of the removal order itself. The parties disputed whether he is subject to mandatory or discretionary detention and whether respondents complied with statutory, regulatory, and constitutional requirements governing his continued confinement. On July 15, 2026, respondents filed a Notice of Intended Removal, stating he was scheduled for transfer out of Adelanto on July 18, 2026, and removal from the United States on July 26, 2026. On July 17, 2026, the court granted in part his ex parte application for a temporary restraining order, enjoining respondents from moving him to a location outside the Central District of California during the pendency of the action, with the order remaining in effect for fourteen days or until the court's disposition of the petition.
