MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. ECF No. 1 . In the Petition, Petitioner requests that the Court issue "a writ of habeas corpus directing Respondents to provide him with a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) within seven (7) days of the Court's order wherein the government bears the burden of demonstrating by clear and convincing evidence that his continued detention is warranted." Id. at 2. Having reviewed the Petition, the Court ORDERS Petitioner to, no later than January 26, 2026, (1) serve Respondents with copies of the Petition and accompanying papers, along with a copy of this Order, by e-mail and by overnight mail, and (2) promptly file proof of such service on the docket. Counsel for Respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance. Within five (5) calendar days of service, Respondents are ORDERED TO RESPOND to the Petition and are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to why the Petition should not be granted. See, e.g., Yassine v. Collins, No. 1:25-cv-00786-ADA-SH, 2025 WL 1954064, at *1 (W.D. Tex. July 7, 2025) (explaining that while § 2243 refers to a three day deadline, this requirement is "subordinate to the district court's authority to set deadlines" itself, and granting respondents a fourteen day deadline to respond in order to "give [r]espondents adequate time to brief the issues" (quotations omitted)). Pursuant to the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), and in order to preserve the Court's jurisdiction, Respondents SHALL NOT REMOVE Petitioner from the District of Colorado or the United States unless or until this Court or the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit vacates this Order. See also Vizguerra-Ramirez v. Choate, et. al, Case No. 1:25-cv-881, D. Colo., ECF No. 11 at 45 (collecting cases); F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 603 (1966); Local 1814, Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n v. New York Shipping Assn, 965 F.2d 1224, 1237 (2d Cir. 1992). By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 1/23/2026.
