s/ Charles H. Weigle Charles H. Weigle United States Magistrate Judge Petitioner asserts that he is entitled to a bond hearing pursuant to J.A.M. v. Streeval, No. 4:25-CV- 342-CDL, 2025 WL 3050094 (M.D. Ga. Nov. 1, 2025) and P.R.S. v. Streeval, No. 4:25-cv-330-CDL, 2025 WL 3269947 (M.D. Ga. Nov. 24, 2025). (ECF No. 1). However, from the application, it is unclear how Petitioner entered the country, came to be detained, or exactly how long he has been detained. Therefore, a more thorough response is required to determine whether Petitioner is entitled to a bond hearing in this case.
