See Fed. R. Civ.

MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 2/04/2026: (Text Only Entry): The 2 motion for temporary restraining order is denied. Petitioner asserts that she was improperly detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(1), see Doc. 1 at para 38, but given that petitioner is subject to a reinstated final order of removal, 8 U.S.C. § 1231 governs her detention. See Johnson v. Guzman Chavez, 594 U. S. 523, 533-35 (2021). Petitioner's 2 motion also does not address the regulations governing her situation: ICE's revocation of the release of a noncitizen subject to a final order of removal who had previously been released pending withholding-only proceedings. See 8 C.F.R. §§ 241.13(i) and 241.4(l); J.R.M.J. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01567-DC-SCR, 2025 WL 3295593, at *4-5 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 26, 2025). Petitioner does not allege a violation of the regulations or address why due process in her specific situation would require release notwithstanding compliance with the regulations. Petitioner has not met her burden, on the present motion, to show that she is likely to succeed on the merits of her due process claim. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for the preparation of findings and recommendations on the petition or other appropriate action. (Deputy Clerk VMG) (Entered: 02/04/2026)
