United States v. Hobson, 2:25-cr-00029

Darrell Tyler was indicted on three counts: Hobbs Act robbery, brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence, and possession of a firearm by a felon.
Tyler was detained pending trial following a recommendation from Pretrial Services and a hearing, despite arguing for release with conditions.
Tyler then filed a motion to vacate the detention order and requested release with conditions.
The government opposed the motion, and the court analyzed whether Tyler's motion was to reopen the hearing or to appeal the detention order.
The court treated the motion as one to reopen the detention hearing under 18 U.S.C. § 3142(f), which requires new, material information not previously available.
The court found no new material information was presented and denied the motion to vacate the detention order.

Issue	Plaintiff's Argument	Defendant's Argument	Held
Whether detention pending trial remains warranted	Tyler poses flight risk and danger	Sufficient conditions could assure appearance and safety	Detention order remains; motion denied
Whether new material information exists to reopen	None presented	Motion implied new circumstances	No new information; no basis to reconsider
Proper legal standard for reviewing detention	Review per § 3142(f)	Unclear; possibly sought district review	Applied § 3142(f) standard
Burden of proof for rebutting presumption	Detention presumption applies	Tyler’s community/family ties rebut presumption	Defendant rebutted presumption, but other factors support detention
