Nicaraguan woman detained after appearing for routine ICE check-in appointment
Jul 1, 2026·Location: Los Angeles, CA
Country of origin: Nicaragua
A Nicaraguan citizen paroled into the United States in October 2022 was detained on July 1, 2026, when she appeared for a routine check-in appointment at the ICE Office in Los Angeles. She had complied with all release conditions, maintained employment, paid taxes, and had no criminal record for nearly four years. The court granted her petition for habeas corpus, finding that her re-detention without a pre-deprivation hearing violated procedural due process, and ordered her release on her prior conditions within 24 hours.
