ENDORSED ORDER. The Government concedes that Petitioner is detained in this case without a notice to appear. Given that his prior removal proceedings were dismissed, the Government is directed to explain the legal authority to detain Petitioner. See Gonzalez Ochoa v. McCleary, No. 3:25-CV-00139-SHL-WPK, 2026 WL 235589, at *4 (S.D. Iowa Jan. 2, 2026). The Government must file a supplemental brief addressing this question on or before March 20, 2026. Signed by District Judge Kyle C. Dudek on 3/16/2026. (BLW) (Entered: 03/16/2026)

ENDORSED ORDER directing Respondents to respond to 9 the Warden's Motion to Dismiss. Response due by March 26, 2026. In doing so, they must specifically explain how their position in this case squares with the argument they routinely advance -- that the local warden is the sole proper respondent under Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 434-36 (2004). See, e.g., Roblero v. Warden, Florida Soft Side South, et al., No. 2:26-cv-91, Doc. 9 at 1 n.1 (M.D. Fla. 2026). Signed by District Judge Kyle C. Dudek on 3/19/2026. (BLW) (Entered: 03/19/2026)
