He entered federal court in San Francisco concerning a restraining order against ICE to prevent his detention. US District Judge Rita F. Lin extended this restraining order temporarily. Reyes has a complicated history, including a criminal conviction as a youth, but an immigration judge ruled him not dangerous or a flight risk. His attorneys argue that re-detaining him would violate previous judicial rulings.
