SummaryKevin Isaac Montoya Palacios v. Vernon Liggins, Acting Field Office Director, Baltimore, Maryland, Immigration and Customs EnforcementThis 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.Matthew Putra, Director of the Detroit Field Office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, et al., Petitioners v. Juan Manuel Lopez-Campos, et al.This 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.In Re Patrick Starzenski, PetitionerThis case appears to come from a pro se habeas corpus filing in which Patrick Starzenski claims he is being unlawfully detained and that federal courts did not properly consider his request for release. The petition asks the Supreme Court to clarify when courts must hear habeas petitions challenging allegedly indefinite detention and whether a detainee must identify an "immediate custodian" to seek relief.
