2 new immigration-detention habeas cases filed in Kentucky’s federal court

🌎 Resumen en español · traducción automática

Se presentaron dos nuevas peticiones de hábeas corpus bajo 28 U.S.C. § 2241 en la Corte Federal del Distrito Este de Kentucky, relacionadas con detenciones migratorias; casi todas las peticiones de este tipo en 2026 (229 hasta ahora) son de personas retenidas por ICE en el Kenton County Detention Center de Covington. Los casos son Nolasco v. Maydak (No. 2:26-cv-00418, presentado el 13 de octubre de 2026) e Ibragimov v. Fields (No. 2:26-cv-00415, presentado el 9 de octubre de 2026), ambos asignados al juez S. Chad Meredith. Los registros solo muestran el título, el número, la fecha y el juez asignado, por lo que no revelan las reclamaciones ni el posible resultado, y presentar una petición no implica ninguna decisión sobre el fondo del caso.

These are petitions under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, the federal habeas corpus statute that lets people in custody ask a federal judge to review whether their detention is lawful or has lasted too long. They are not appeals of deportation orders. Nearly all are filed by people held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Kenton County Detention Center in Covington. So far in 2026, 229 such petitions have been filed in the Eastern District of Kentucky.

Two new filings were docketed in this roundup period:

  • Nolasco v. Maydak, Case No. 2:26-cv-00418, filed October 13, 2026, assigned to Judge S. Chad Meredith.
  • Ibragimov v. Fields, Case No. 2:26-cv-00415, filed October 9, 2026, assigned to Judge S. Chad Meredith.

Docket entries show only the case caption, number, filing date, and assigned judge. They do not show the claims raised, the petitioners’ circumstances, or how the court may rule. A filing is an initial request for review and does not reflect any finding on the merits. Federal courts often resolve these petitions after the government responds, and outcomes can change as cases develop.
