PAPERLESS ORDER CONSOLIDATING CASES. THIS CAUSE came before the Court upon a sua sponte review of the record. Rule 42(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure allows the Court to consolidate actions that have common questions of law or fact. Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(a). Here, the Court finds that Case Nos. 1:26-cv-21344-KMM and 1:26-cv-21281-KMM involve common questions of law and fact, such that consolidation is appropriate. Accordingly, Case No. 1:26-cv-21344-KMM is hereby CONSOLIDATED with Case No. 1:26-cv-21281-KMM for all purposes, including trial. The Clerk of the Court is INSTRUCTED to administratively CLOSE Case No. 1:26-cv-21344-KMM. All future filings MUST be made only in the lead case, Case No. 1:26-cv-21281-KMM. All pending motions, if any, in Case No. 1:26-cv-21344-KMM are DENIED AS MOOT except the Petition (ECF No. 1), which remains operative in the lead case. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to refile Petitioner Jersson Stiven Rojas Ruiz's Petition (ECF No. 1) in the lead case, as he is pro se. The Order to Show Cause deadlines shall be as follows: (1) Respondents shall file one (1) consolidated response addressing both Petitioners within three (3) days of both Petitioners paying the $5.00 filing fee, or attaching certified copies of their prison account statements (or file notices explaining that no such statement exists for their detention facilities) for the six-month period preceding the filing of each Petition; (2) each Petitioner shall be allowed to file a Reply within seven (7) days of Respondents' Response. All other provisions of the Order to Show Cause in the lead case (ECF No. 5), including formatting and page limit requirements, shall remain in force. Signed by Judge K. Michael Moore on 3/3/2026.
