MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 2/9/2026: The Court has reviewed Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ) and Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (ECF No. 3 ). The issues raised therein appear to mirror those previously addressed by the Court in many prior cases. See Garcia Mariagua v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-cv-01744-DJC-CSK; Ortega v. Noem, No. 1:25-cv-01663-DJC-CKD; Lopez v. Lyons, No. 2:25-cv-03174-DJC-CKD. On or before February 12, 2026, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that render it distinct from the Court's prior orders in the cases listed above and would justify denial of a preliminary injunction. Respondents should also state whether they oppose this Court converting the Motion for Temporary Restraining Order to a Motion for Preliminary Injunction. Petitioner may file a reply on or before February 13, 2026. The matter is not set for a hearing though the Court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. Petitioner's counsel is DIRECTED to send a copy of the petition and provide the Petitioner's full name and A number to the US Attorney's Office by February 9, 2026, at 6:00 P.M., at their email usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov. Petitioner's Counsel shall file proof of such service on the docket. Counsel for Respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance. [TEXT ONLY ORDER] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 02/09/2026)
