MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 1/9/2026: The Court has reviewed petitioner's 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus and 2 motion for temporary restraining order. The Court has addressed the legal issues raised by the 2 motion for temporary restraining order on previous occasions. See e.g., Clene C.D. v. Robbins, No. 1:25-CV-01463-KES-SKO (HC), 2025 WL 3492118 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 4, 2025); Carmen G.C. v. Robbins, No. 1:25-CV-01648-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3521304 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 8, 2025); Bilal A. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01715-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3648366 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 16, 2025); W.V.S.M. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01489-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3236521 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 19, 2025). On or before January 13, 2026, respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that render it distinguishable from the Court's prior orders in Clene C.D. v. Robbins, Carmen G.C. v. Robbins, Bilal A. v. Wofford, and W.V.S.M. v. Wofford and justify denying the motion, or indicate the matter is not substantively distinguishable. Respondents shall also state their position on whether the motion should be converted to a motion for preliminary injunction and whether they request a hearing in this matter. By 12 p.m. on January 10, 2026, to the extent not already accomplished, petitioner's counsel is directed: (1) to serve respondents with a copy of the petition, the motion for temporary restraining order, the accompanying papers, and a copy of this Order, by e-mail to all appropriate recipients including the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of California, with a copy to usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov, and by overnight mail; and (2) promptly file proof of such service on the docket. Counsel for respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance. Pending the Court's decision on 2 motion for temporary restraining order, and unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that respondents shall not transfer petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction").
