ORDER: This matter is before the Court on 23 Petitioner's Motion for Leave to Amend and Supplement Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus ("Motion"). Given that the Motion is unopposed and remains pending, and the granting of which would likely moot both Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 ("Petition") 1, as well as his pending Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (ECF No. 14), the Oral Argument on the Petition presently set for November 20, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. is hereby VACATED. The Court will reset the hearing, if appropriate, by way of a separate order. SO ORDERED by Judge William J. Martinez on 11/14/2025. Text Only Entry (wjmja, ) (Entered: 11/14/2025)
