If Petitioner does not intend to file a TRO, he shall notify the Court immediately at mkrueger@caed.uscourts.gov. Pending the Court's ruling on the petition, Respondents shall not take any action to transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v.

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on March 9, 2026: This matter is before the Court on Petitioner's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO"). (ECF No. 7 .) The Court has reviewed Petitioner's motion and finds Petitioner has met his burden establishing a TRO is warranted under the factors articulated in Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20 (2008). Petitioner has established: (1) a likelihood of success on his claim that Respondents violated the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause and Immigration and Nationality Act; (2) Petitioner will suffer irreparable harm in the absence of a TRO; (3) the balance of equities tip in Petitioner's favor; and (4) a TRO is in the public interest. The Court has repeatedly ruled on the issues presented in the instant case. See, e.g., Morales-Flores v. Lyons, No. 1:25-CV-01640-TLN-EFB, 2025 WL 3552841, at *3 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 11, 2025). Accordingly, Petitioner's Motion for TRO is GRANTED. To return Petitioner to the status quo ante litem, Respondents are ORDERED TO IMMEDIATELY RELEASE FROM DETENTION FACILITY Petitioner under the same conditions he was released prior to his current detention. At the time of release, Respondents must return all of Petitioner's documents and possessions. Respondents are ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from re-arresting or re-detaining Petitioner absent compliance with constitutional protections, including seven-days' notice and a pre-deprivation hearing. Respondents are further ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why the Court should not grant the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and enter judgment in favor of Petitioner. Respondents shall file responsive papers by March 16, 2026. Petitioner may file a reply by March 19, 2026. The parties shall indicate whether they waive a hearing. Petitioner shall immediately serve this Order, along with Petitioner's A # and all documents filed in this case, on Respondents with a copy via email to: usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov. Respondents may apply to the Court for modification or dissolution of the TRO on two days' notice to Petitioner. Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(4). The bond requirement of Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(c) is waived. IT IS SO ORDERED. (TEXT ONLY ENTRY) (Deputy Clerk MDK) (Entered: 03/09/2026)
