KONSTANTIN CHEVYREV,

Petitioner,

v.

ALBERTO R. GONZALES,

Attorney General, et.al.,

Respondents.

 /

CV F 07-0633 OWW SMS HC

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY THE

PETITION SHOULD NOT BE GRANTED

Petitioner is detained by the United States Bureau of Immigration and Customs

Enforcement (“ICE”) and is proceeding with a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 2241. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 72-302. 

In the petition filed, Petitioner alleges that his detention pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(2)

is indefinite and punitive in nature, thus violating Petitioner’s substantive and procedural due

process rights under the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment of the United States

Constitution. Petitioner also asserts that his detention is in violation of Respondent’s statutory

authority. 

Because Petitioner may be entitled to relief if the claimed violations are proved,

Respondent IS ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why the Petition should not be granted. Rule 4,

Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases; see Rule 1(b), Rule 11, Rules Governing Section 2254

Cases; Fed. R. Civ. P. 81(a)(2). Respondent SHALL INCLUDE a copy of Petitioner’s Alien File
