- Jerry W. Blackwell
- Nov. 13, 2024
Background
Nyabuay Biel Gach petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus against Marcos Charles, identified as an Immigration and Customs Enforcement Field Office Director; Alejandro Mayorkas, identified as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; and Merrick Garland, identified as the U.S. Attorney General.
Report and Recommendation
United States Magistrate Judge John F. Docherty issued a report and recommendation on October 23, 2024. No party filed objections within the permitted time. The court therefore reviewed the report and recommendation for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake apparent from the record.
Ruling
The court found no clear error, accepted the October 23, 2024 report and recommendation, and denied Gach’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The court also directed that judgment be entered. The order itself does not explain the report and recommendation’s underlying reasoning.
