ORDER: A preliminary review of the short record suggests that the judgment is deficient. A judgment must provide relief to which the prevailing party is entitled. Hyland v. Liberty Mutual Fire Ins. Co., 885 F.3d 482, 483 (7th Cir. 2018). The judgment entered in this case fails to do so. It is insufficient to state only that judgement is entered in favor of the habeas corpus petitioner without providing relief, and the judgment itself must be self-contained and specify the relief awarded. See Johnson v. Acevedo, 572 F.3d 398, 400 (7th Cir. 2009). Accordingly, appellants and appellee each shall file, on or before February 19, 2026, a brief memorandum stating why this appeal should not be remanded to the district court to enter a proper judgment. Briefing is SUSPENDED pending further court order. [7502816] JXK [3] [7502816] [26-1221] (AD) [Entered: 02/05/2026 10:37 AM]
