MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Christopher D. Baker on 12/11/2025: (1) For good cause shown, Petitioner's motion for extension of time to file traverse (Doc. 10 ) is GRANTED. Accordingly, Petitioner shall file a traverse no later than January 23, 2026; (2) On 12/10/2025, Respondents filed a certificate of service (Doc. 11) in which they represent that a "courtesy copy" of Respondent's Opposition (Doc. 9 ) was served by mail that same date upon Petitioner. However, the record does not reflect that Respondents timely served their Opposition upon Petitioner because the Opposition was filed without a proof of service, in violation of Local Rule 135. See (Doc. 9). Accordingly, no later than 12/18/2025, Respondents SHALL FILE a proof of service in which they certify the first date on which a copy of the Opposition was served upon Petitioner, accompanied by (as necessary) a declaration setting forth the circumstances of any untimely filing of the Opposition.

MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Christopher D. Baker on 01/22/2026: Pending before the Court is the filing of Petitioner Deni Shamaev, dated January 15, 2026, in which he represents that he "still [has] not received a copy of the government's" opposition to the petition for writ of habeas corpus. (Doc. 16 ). Respondents have represented that on December 10, 2025, Respondents' agent mailed a copy of Respondents' opposition to Petitioner "certified return receipt." (Doc. 11 ); see (Doc. 14) (counsel's representation that Respondents' opposition improperly was not served on Petitioner on the date of its filing and was first served on Petitioner on December 10, 2025). Accordingly, no later than January 26, 2026, Respondents SHALL FILE a copy of the certified mailing receipt of December 10, 2025, and any return demonstrating proof of receipt by Petitioner of Respondents' opposition.

MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Christopher D. Baker on 01/27/2026: The Court has reviewed the response of counsel for Respondents to the Court's order of 1/22/2026. (Doc. 18 ). The response and its attachments remain defective. First, the certificate of service continues to refer to service upon Petitioner of a "courtesy copy" of Respondents' opposition papers, yet, as counsel for Respondents has and continues to concede, proper service of Respondents' opposition papers has never been effected upon Petitioner - in other words, the service is not a mere courtesy. Second, the certifying employee on the certificate of service represents that service was effected on 12/18/2025. Under the circumstances, that cannot be true. Accordingly, no later than 1/28/2026, it is HEREBY ORDERED that Respondents SHALL FILE a corrected certificate of service that remedies the defects noted above. And it is FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner shall have until 2/24/2026 to file a response/traverse to Respondents' opposition papers. (Deputy Clerk CRB) (Entered: 01/27/2026)
