ORDER FOR SERVICE--It is FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents shall file a response to the Petition within five (5) days of the date of service. Because this case appears to turn on whether 8 U.S.C. § 1225 authorizes Petitioners detention, Respondents must consider the Courts prior orders addressing this question1 and note any material factual differences between those cases and this one. If Respondents so choose, in lieu of a full response, they may instead file a response indicating that there are no material factual differences here and preserving all legal arguments made by the Federal Respondents in those cases.It is FURTHER ORDERED that, if Petitioner elects to file a reply, Petitioner may do so no later than seven days after the Respondents file their answers/responses.. Signed by Judge Xavier Rodriguez. (mgr) (Entered: 01/28/2026)
