ORDER FOR SERVICE--Federal Respondents are ORDERED to file a response to the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus no later than January 30, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. Because this case appears to turn on whether 8 U.S.C. § 1225 authorizes Petitioners detentiona matter extensively addressed and rejected in the Western District of Texas whether Respondents contend that detention is proper under either § 1225(b)(1) or (2),1 Respondents must consider the Courts prior orders addressing this question. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that any possible or anticipated removal or transfer is IMMEDIATELY STAYED until further order from this Court. Respondents shall not transfer the above-named Petitioner outside of this judicial district during the pendency of this litigation and until further Order of this Court allowing removal or transfer..
