(Text-Only) ORDER/NOTICE TO ATTORNEY. Respondents were ordered to return Petitioner's personal property no later than February 27, 2026, and to file a status report confirming return of Petitioner's items 5 . Respondents did not comply with this Court's Order. Instead, Respondents filed a late status update indicating some of Petitioner's property has been located, some has not, and search efforts continue. This is unacceptable. Accordingly, Respondents are ordered to provide a detailed status update, supported by declaration or affidavit, indicating the following: (1) The date on which Petitioner's driver's license and employment authorization document were made available for pick-up; (2) what specific efforts have been made to locate the remainder of Petitioner's property, including details such as the names of the individuals involved, the dates of any communications, and the media used (e.g., electronic written communication or oral communication); (3) the current status of the remainder of Petitioner's property; and (4) if not all located and returned, the additional detailed steps Respondents intend to take to comply with the property-return component of this Court's prior Order. This update is due no later than 12:00 p.m. on March 4, 2026. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Douglas L. Micko on 3/3/2026. (LC2) (Entered: 03/03/2026)
