IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF WEST VIRGINIA

CHARLESTON DIVISION

ROLANDO ALEXANDER ESCALANTE CARRILLO,

Petitioner,

v. CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:26-cv-00150

CHRISTOPHER MASON, et al.,

Respondents.

ORDER

Pending before the court is Petitioner Rolando Alexander Escalante Carrillo’s Verified
Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. [ECF No. 1]. For the reasons discussed below, the Petition is
GRANTED.
I. BACKGROUND
Petitioner is a citizen and national of El Salvador who is present in the United States as a
noncitizen. [ECF No. 1, ¶ 17]. He fled El Salvador and entered the United States “via the CBP
One program on or about May 23, 2023,” and currently lives in Morgantown, West Virginia. Id.
He has applied for asylum and has received a work permit. Id. On February 12, 2026, Petitioner
was given to the custody of ICE “following his completion of a three-month misdemeanor jail
sentence.” Id. Petitioner has remained detained and is currently confined at South Central Regional
Jail (“SCRJ”) in Charleston, West Virginia. Id. ¶ 8.
On February 19, 2026, Petitioner filed a Petition1 for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to

1 The Petition originally contained seven total named Petitioners, but on February 24, 2026, the court severed the
Petition into separate and distinct actions for each Petitioner. [ECF No. 15]. The Petition identifies Christopher Mason,
Superintendent of South Central Regional Jail, as a respondent, as well as Michael Rose, Acting Field Office Director
of the Philadelphia Field Office of ICE; Todd M. Lyons, Acting Director of ICE; Kristi Noem, Secretary of Homeland
28 U.S.C. § 2241. Id. ¶ 1. Petitioner seeks “immediate release from immigration detention, or in
the alternative, an order directing Respondents to provide him with a constitutionally adequate
custody hearing before a neutral decisionmaker with authority to assess the necessity of detention
and to order release on appropriate conditions.” Id. ¶ 2. Petitioner’s confinement is “civil and

administrative in nature” and is “not based on any criminal conviction or charge.” Id. ¶ 21. To
date, Petitioner has not had an administrative judge or neutral decisionmaker determine that his
continued detention is justified based on an individual assessment. Id. ¶ 22. Petitioner contends
that his ongoing confinement violates multiple constitutional, statutory, and regulatory protections,
including the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses, the Immigration and
Nationality Act (“INA”) and its implementing regulations, the Administrative Procedure Act
(“APA”), and the Suspension Clause of the United States Constitution. Id. ¶¶ 34–66.
On February 20, 2026, this court stayed the removal of Petitioner from this district and
ordered the Government to respond and explain why the Petition should not be granted. [ECF No.
11]. The court further ordered that counsel notify the court “whether the case raises materially

distinct factual circumstances or legal arguments from the other cases this court has already
considered and whether a hearing is requested or waived.” Id.
In its response, the Government stated that it had “carefully reviewed the pending petition
and determined that the same or substantially similar issues arise in the case at bar.”2 [ECF No.
16-1, at 2]. The Government further confirmed that it would not offer evidence beyond the
documents attached to its response, nor would it offer any witnesses. Id. Therefore, the
Government stated it would rely “upon the legal arguments presented below, together with the

Security; and Pamela Jo Bondi, the United States Attorney General (collectively, the “Government”). [ECF No. 1].
2 Ostensibly, the Government concedes that Petitioner’s 3-month misdemeanor sentence has no impact on his habeas
petition.
exhibits attached to this response,” and the matter could be decided without a hearing. Id. at 3.
Petitioner and the Government filed a Joint Stipulation that “the parties hereby rely upon
the legal arguments presented in their briefs, together with any exhibits attached to their respective
filings, and represent the parties believe that this matter can be decided without a hearing, unless

additional evidence is required for the matter to be resolved.” [ECF No. 17, at 1]. Accordingly, the
court finds that a hearing is not necessary in this case.
II. LEGAL STANDARD
“[H]abeas corpus is a broad, independent writ designed to address challenges to any illegal
custody,” Wall v. Kiser, 21 F.4th 266, 273 (4th Cir. 2021), including those “by executive
direction,” Preiser v. Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 475, 484 (1973). The “heart of habeas corpus” is the
challenge to a petitioner’s confinement (or the duration of his confinement), where he seeks
“immediate release or a speedier release from that confinement.” Preiser, 411 U.S. at 498. The
Constitution guarantees that the writ of habeas corpus is “available to every individual detained
within the United States.” Hamdi v. Rumsfeld, 542 U.S. 507, 525 (2004). Accordingly, noncitizens

may invoke habeas in immigration-related matters where no other statutory mechanism for review
is provided. See Zadvydas v. Davis, 533 U.S. 678, 687–88 (2001). Indeed, challenges to present
immigration confinement “fall within the ‘core’ of the writ of habeas corpus.” Trump v. J. G. G.,
604 U.S. 670, 672 (2025) (quoting Nance v. Ward, 597 U.S. 159, 167 (2022))
28 U.S.C. § 2241 confers federal district courts “within their respective jurisdictions” the
authority to hear applications for habeas corpus by any person who claims to be held “in custody
in violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties of the United States . . . .” Id. §§ 2241(a), (c).
After receiving the petition and any response thereto, “[t]he court shall summarily hear and
determine the facts, and dispose of the matter as law and justice require.” 28 U.S.C. § 2243. The
petitioner bears the burden of proving that he is being held contrary to law by a preponderance of
the evidence. Walker v. Johnston, 312 U.S. 275, 286 (1941) (“On a hearing, [the § 2241 petitioner
has] the burden of sustaining his allegations by a preponderance of evidence.”); Parke v. Raley,
506 U.S. 20, 31 (1992); Sumner v. Mata, 449 U.S. 539, 551 (1981).

III. FIFTH AMENDMENT DUE PROCESS RIGHTS
For reasons more fully explained below, the analysis here is brief. The court agrees with
the Government that this case raises the same or substantially similar issues as previous ones, and
their outcomes apply forcefully to this case as well. Further, because the Government presents
only legal arguments and does not challenge the factual allegations of the Verified Petition,3 the
court will only address the Government’s repeatedly rejected legal arguments.
For the reasons explained and analyzed in previous cases before this court and this district,
I will once again FIND: First, the court has jurisdiction. Petitioner does not challenge an
immigration proceeding or decision that would bar this court’s jurisdiction. Second, Petitioner is
not “seeking admission” into the country; he has been in the country since 2023 and was paroled

by the federal government for two years after his entry. [ECF No. 16-2, at 2] (Government’s
Exhibit A, a United States Department of Homeland Security Record of Deportable/Inadmissible
Alien form). The discretionary detention of 8 U.S.C. § 1226 applies to him. Third, Petitioner’s due
process rights have been violated. Despite facing no current criminal charge, Petitioner sits in the
local jail, seemingly until his June 6, 2026 hearing in front of an immigration judge, months from
now. [ECF No. 16-4]. This violates his due process rights.
Immediate release is the only appropriate remedy. Where detention has been found
unlawful and no constitutionally adequate bond hearing has been provided, continued custody

3 According to Rule 5 of the Rule Governing Section 2254 Cases and Section 2255 Proceedings in the United States
District Courts, when required to answer the petition, “[t]he answer must address the allegations in the petition.”
cannot stand.
Accordingly, for the reasons set forth here and in the court’s previous cases, the
Government’s Motion to Dismiss, [ECF No. 16-1], is DENIED, and the Petition for Writ of
Habeas Corpus, [ECF No. 1], is GRANTED.

IV. NOTICE OF CONTINUOUS VIOLATIONS
This case is one of 17 immigration habeas petitions assigned to the court this week.4
According to the Government, the detention of these Petitioners is “mandatory” under 8 U.S.C. §
1225, and regardless of the constitutional defects, the federal district courts lack jurisdiction over
these claims—an argument unanimously rejected in this district. In 15 of the cases, Petitioners
challenge their continued unlawful detention resulting from an arrest occurring on or after
February 12, 2026.
How can that be? On February 4 and February 5, 2026, Judge Johnston held that (1) the
federal district court has jurisdiction over alleged constitutional violations in habeas petitions and
(2) the Government’s interpretation of the immigration code was wrong.5 On February 5, 2026,

Judge Chambers agreed, found that the court had jurisdiction, interpreted the immigration code
similarly, and released the petitioners before him.6 On February 9, 2026, this court, holding that

it properly had jurisdiction over petitioners’ habeas challenge, carefully and thoroughly used
statutory construction to hold that petitioners were subject to discretionary detention and that the
Government was—once again—wrong.7 And on February 11, 2026, Judge Berger, conducting
her own analysis of the immigration code, held that she had jurisdiction and that the Government’s
position on mandatory detention was contrary to established law.8

But on February 12, 14, 17, 18, 21, and 22, 2026, the Government arrested noncitizens
already in the interior of the United States. Today, the Government continues to wrongfully detain
those petitioners without due process. Even now the Government incredulously asserts that the
federal district courts do not have jurisdiction, that petitioners cannot raise due process violations,
and that the Government has authority to mandatorily and indefinitely detain noncitizens in the
local jail.
The Government is wrong. Judges in this district have said that over9 and over10 and over11

“materially distinguishable facts . . . in this case.”).

13 I note that counsel for the Government has been responsive and professional before this court. In the Government’s
briefing it is clear to me that the attorneys are aware of the law of this district and how it affects the Government’s
argument. The problem lies in the attorneys’ clients, federal government actors, who have offered no evidence that
they have seen or even care about the legal rulings of this district. The disregard for the law shames every hard working
public servant who toils for the benefit of the country and its people.
case.14 The court then is left with few options to ensure compliance with its orders.
V. ENFORCEMENT OF CONSTITUIONAL RULINGS AND REMEDIES
This court and other judges in this district have now ruled in numerous cases that
discretionary detention without individualized custody determinations violates the Fifth

Amendment’s Due Process Clause. In each case, the Government has presented no factual dispute
and no legal argument beyond those this court has previously rejected.15 The Government appears
solely to preserve appellate objections while continuing identical unconstitutional practices.
The Government admitted to Judge Berger that it had no intention of changing its practice.
She wrote: “counsel for the Respondents indicated, in response to the Court's inquiry, that the
Respondents intend to continue to arrest and detain people in this district under the same
circumstances and based on the same legal justifications that all four district judges to address the
matter have found to be illegal and unconstitutional. The Court has previously prohibited re-arrest
and detention absent a significant change in circumstances to justify detention. The Court concurs
with the Petitioners that the language previously used provides inadequate protection due to the

Respondents’ lack of respect for the law.” Barcarcel Perez v. Mason, No. 2:26-cv-00108, 2026
WL 508816, at *1 n.1 (S.D. W. Va. Feb. 20, 2026).
The holdings in those cases, particularly the constitutional interpretations, are not passing
observations. They are constitutional rulings, and they govern the conduct of federal officers

14 The American Bar Association’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct govern the bringing of “Meritorious Claims
& Contentions.” Model Rules of Pro. Conduct r. 3.1 (A.B.A.). It states that “[a] lawyer shall not bring or defend a
proceeding, or assert or controvert an issue therein, unless there is a basis in law and fact for doing so that is not
frivolous, which includes a good faith argument for an extension, modification or reversal of existing law.” Id. Here,
the Government asserts an argument that has been unanimously rejected in this district, and the Government concedes
that previous cases are substantially similar enough to answer present cases.

15 In fact, the quality of the responses has diminished. See Rodriguez v. Mason, No. 2:26-cv-00122, 2026 WL 510426,
at *2 n.3 (S.D. W. Va. Feb. 24, 2026) (Berger, J.) (“This sloppiness further validates the Court's concerns about the
procedures utilized by the Respondents depriving people present in the United States of their liberty.”).
operating within the jurisdiction of this court.
Constitutional rulings of federal district courts are not advisory opinions. They are binding
law within this jurisdiction unless and until reversed. Government officials—federal and state—
subject to this court’s jurisdiction are required to conform their conduct to this court’s

constitutional rulings. This court possesses inherent authority to enforce its constitutional
determinations and will not permit systematic violations to continue while awaiting appellate
resolution.
Once a federal court has declared particular conduct unconstitutional, the court possesses
equitable authority to prevent the same defendants from engaging in the same unconstitutional
conduct again. That authority rests not on judicial innovation but on the necessity of making
constitutional judgments effective. A constitutional ruling cannot be reduced to a temporary
directive that must be relitigated each time the same conduct recurs.
If officials could repeat practices already determined to be unconstitutional and require
each affected person to begin anew, constitutional adjudication would become provisional, and

judicial power would be reduced to commentary. The Constitution does not contemplate violations
in installments.
This court will not permit constitutional violations to proceed piecemeal while officials
await appellate reversal of rulings they are presently bound to obey. If systematic violations
continue despite repeated judicial findings of unconstitutionality, this court will employ the full
range of its inherent authority, including (1) injunctive relief prohibiting detention without
individualized custody determinations, (2) contempt proceedings against officials who defy this
court’s orders or constitutional rulings, (3) monetary sanctions against responsible officials, and
(4) any other such other relief as may be necessary to vindicate constitutional rights and enforce
this Court’s rulings.16
The Constitution requires immediate compliance with judicial determinations, not
continuation of violations pending appeal.
VI. FINAL NOTICE

This Order serves as explicit notice to all officials—state and federal—involved in the
detention of individuals whose cases come before this court.
Continued detention without individualized custody determinations, after this court’s
repeated holdings that such detention violates the Fifth Amendment, will result in legal
consequences. For state jail officials, those consequences include personal civil liability without
qualified immunity protection. For federal officials, those consequences include exercise of this
court’s full inherent authority to enforce constitutional compliance including contempt.
Officials who believe this court has erred in its constitutional analysis may seek stay of this
court’s orders pending appeal or pursue appellate review. What they may not do is continue
systematic constitutional violations while preserving appellate objections and expecting this court

to grant relief in case after case without enforcing its rulings.
This court will enforce the Constitution.
VII. CONCLUSION
Therefore, the Government’s Motion to Dismiss, [ECF No. 16-1], is DENIED, and the
Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, [ECF No. 1], is GRANTED. Respondents are ORDERED
to RELEASE PETITIONER IMMEDIATELY. Respondents are PROHIBITED from re-

16 I note that SCRJ accepts physical custody of the immigrant petitioners under circumstances and practices already
declared unconstitutional by this court and judges in this district. Jail officials act pursuant to state law, and under
color of state law, are depriving each of these petitioners their right to liberty, a clearly established constitutional right.
After this court’s and this district’s multitude of rulings, state officials are clearly on notice, and the petitioners’ liberty
interests have clearly been established.
arresting and detaining Petitioner absent significant change in circumstances to justify detention
or subject to the determination of a neutral and detached decisionmaker. Respondents are
DIRECTED to return all seized personal items of the Petitioners.
The court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a copy of this Order to counsel, any unrepresented
party, and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of West Virginia.
