SCHEDULING NOTICE TEXT ONLY ENTRY (In Chambers) by Magistrate Judge Brianna Fuller Mircheff. The Court issued a Report and Recommendation, which recommends granting the Petition and ordering that Petitioner be released from custody. Either party may file objections to this Court's findings and recommendations under 28 U.S.C. ? 636(b)(1)(C). By Local Rule, the objections period in a case involving a person in custody is presumptively 20 days. See L.R. 72-3.4. However, the Court finds that a shortened objection period is warranted here given the nature of the relief at issue. See United States v. Barney, 568 F.2d 134, 136 (9th Cir. 1978) (per curiam) (holding that a district court has the discretion to shorten the objection period). Both parties assented to a shorter period of objections here. (ECF 8, 10.) Accordingly, the parties must submit any objections to this Report and Recommendation on or before February 20, 2026, at noon; any responses to objections must be filed as soon as possible, but no later than February 21, 2026. 11 THERE IS NO PDF DOCUMENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ENTRY.
