PAPERLESS ORDER. THIS MATTER is before the Court on Respondents' Response to Order to Show Cause ("Response") (DE 8 ). In the Response, Respondents represent that, prior to the entry of this Court's Order to Show Cause which precluded Respondents from removing Petitioner from the Miramar Office, Petitioner was transferred to the Florida Soft Side South Detention Center ("Detention Center"), because the Miramar Office is not designed for continued detention. Accordingly, in light of this transfer, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Respondents shall not move Petitioner from the Detention Center until further order of the Court. Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams on 1/20/2026. (ymd) (Entered: 01/20/2026)
