Question presented	Kevin Isaac Montoya Palacios, Petitioner v. Vernon Liggins, Acting Field Office Director, Baltimore, Maryland, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, et al.Whether, under EAJA, "any civil action" encompasses an action seeking a writ of habeas corpus to challenge civil immigration detention?	Deborah Kollman, as Executor of the Estate of Stephanie A. Smith, Petitioner v. Mercy Health-Clermont Hospital, LLC, et al.1. When a case is timely filed in state court and then removed to federal court, does the tolling provision in § 1367(d) stop the clock on the limitations period for any state-law claims as of the time the plaintiff initially, and timely, filed the claim in state court? 2. Or, does the clock stop only once the claim is pending in federal court, even if removal to federal court is beyond the plaintiff’s control?	Matthew Putra, Director of the Detroit Field Office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement v. Juan Manuel Lopez-Campos1. Whether 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A) mandates the detention pending removal proceedings of aliens who, like respondents, are present in the United States without having been admitted? 2. Whether detaining respondents without a bond hearing during their removal proceedings comports with due process?
Summary	Kevin Isaac Montoya Palacios, Petitioner v. Vernon Liggins, Acting Field Office Director, Baltimore, Maryland, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, et al.This case asks whether a person who wins a habeas corpus challenge to civil immigration detention may recover attorney’s fees and costs from the federal government under the Equal Access to Justice Act. The Court will decide whether such a habeas case counts as a “civil action” under that law.	Deborah Kollman, as Executor of the Estate of Stephanie A. Smith, Petitioner v. Mercy Health-Clermont Hospital, LLC, et al.The case concerns when the statute of limitations is paused for state-law claims under 28 U.S.C. § 1367(d) after a lawsuit filed in state court is removed to federal court. The petitioner argues that the pause should begin when the claim was timely filed in state court, rather than only when it reaches federal court through removal.	Matthew Putra, Director of the Detroit Field Office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement v. Juan Manuel Lopez-CamposThis pending case concerns whether federal immigration law requires immigration officials to detain certain noncitizens who are in the United States without formal admission while their removal cases are pending. It also asks whether holding those individuals without a bond hearing during those proceedings violates the Constitution's due process guarantee.
