This case was transferred from the Eastern District of Pennsylvania to the Western District of Pennsylvania on February 20, 2026. It has a pending Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 2) and a pending Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (T.R.O.) (ECF No. 3) that were both filed on December 15, 2025. Upon review of Petitioner Daniel Lemus-Calderon's T.R.O., ECF No. 3, this Court finds that Petitioner has failed to make a sufficient showing under Rule 65 to obtain relief. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Petitioner's T.R.O. at ECF No. 3 is DENIED. Signed by Judge Stephanie L. Haines on 2/23/2026. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (cag) (Entered: 02/23/2026)
