ENDORSED ORDER directing the Federal Respondents to respond to 12 the Warden's Motion to Dismiss. Response due by March 31, 2026. In doing so, they must specifically explain how their position in this case squares with the argument they routinely advance -- that the local warden is the sole proper respondent under Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 434-36 (2004). See, e.g., Roblero v. Warden, Florida Soft Side South, et al., No. 2:26-cv-91, Doc. 9 at 1 n.1 (M.D. Fla. 2026). Petitioner must file a response, if he wishes, by that date as well. Signed by District Judge Kyle C. Dudek on 3/24/2026. (BLW) (Entered: 03/24/2026)
