SAN JOSE DIVISION

BRAULIO ROMAN SALGADO,

Petitioner,

v.

WILLIAM P. BARR, et al.,

Respondents.

Case No. 19-cv-07500-VKD 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

IMMIGRATION HABEAS PETITION

Re: Dkt. No. 1

Petitioner Braulio Roman Salgado, a detainee in immigration custody, filed a petition for 

writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 and § 2243, challenging his detention at the 

Yuba County Jail in Marysville, California. According to his petition, in September 2019 Mr. 

Roman Salgado was granted relief from removal by an immigration judge. Dkt. No. 1. The 

Department of Homeland Security has appealed that decision, and the appeal is pending. Id. 

Meanwhile, Mr. Roman Salgado says he has remained in detention for over seven months, and his 

motion for a new bond hearing was denied. Id. The petition asserts three claims for relief on the 

grounds that Mr. Roman Salgado’s detention and separation from his family, without a new bond 

hearing, violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment, as well as a claimed 

statutory/regulatory right to a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and 8 C.F.R. § 1003.19(e). 

Id.

These claims, when liberally construed, are cognizable and potentially meritorious. Good 

cause appearing, respondents are ordered to show cause why the petition should not be granted.

To expedite the resolution of this case, the Court further orders as follows:

1. The Clerk shall serve Respondents, the Attorney General of the United States, and the
