ORDER FOR SERVICE AND FURTHER ORDERS OF THE COURT--IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents shall file a response to the Petition and Motionwithin five (5) days of the date of service. In preparing their response, if this case concerns, in wholeor in part, whether the Petitioners detention violates due process, Respondents must consider thefollowing prior court orders issued in the Western District of Texas addressing this question and noteany material factual differences: Mendoza v. Noem, Case No. 5:26-CV-0728-JKP (ECF No. 9) (W.D.Tex. Feb. 26, 2026); Fernandez v. Vergara, Case No. SA-26-CA-00500-XR (ECF No. 8) (W.D. Tex.Feb. 26, 2026); Martinez v.
