MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 2/27/2026: The Court has reviewed the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus and 4 motion for temporary restraining order. The Court has previously addressed the legal issues raised by the 1 petition. See e.g., Elmer Joel M. C. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01622-KES-CDB (HC), 2025 WL 3501200 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 6, 2025); Clene C.D. v. Robbins, No. 1:25-CV-01463-KES-SKO (HC), 2026 WL 84302 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 12, 2026); W.V.S.M. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01489-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3236521 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 19, 2025); Bilal A. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01715-KES-HBK (HC), 2025 WL 3648366 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 16, 2025); Marina V.N. v. Robbins, No. 1:25-CV-01845-KES-SKO (HC), 2025 WL 3701960 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 21, 2025). The Court intends to rule directly on the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus, with the understanding that the Court will also consider any arguments made and exhibits submitted in support of the 4 motion for temporary restraining order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a)(2) ("Before or after beginning the hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction, the court may advance the trial on the merits and consolidate it with the hearing."); see also 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The court shall summarily hear and determine the facts, and dispose of [a petitioner's habeas petition] as law and justice require."); Dzhabrailov v. Decker, No. 20-CV-3118 (PMH), 2020 WL 2731966, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. May 26, 2020) (considering preliminary injunction and merits of habeas petition simultaneously). On or before March 3, 2026, respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that distinguish it from the Court's prior orders in Elmer Joel M. C. v. Wofford, Clene C.D. v. Robbins, W.V.S.M. v. Wofford, Bilal A. v. Wofford, and Marina V.N. v. Robbins and justify denying the petition, or indicate the matter is not substantively distinguishable. Pending the Court's decision, and unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that respondents shall not transfer petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction").

MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 3/4/2026: The 4 motion for temporary restraining order is denied. The record shows that, in 2023, petitioner was detained by immigration authorities, charged as inadmissible pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(6)(A)(i), and released on his own recognizance pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). Doc. 1 at 6-9. Petitioner was subsequently arrested and charged with knowingly leaving the scene of an accident that results in serious bodily injury to another person in violation of N.J.S.A. § 2C:12-1.1. Doc. 9-1, Exs. 2, 3. Petitioner was thereafter transferred by state authorities to Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") custody and charged as inadmissible pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(7)(A)(i)(I). Doc. 9-1, Exs. 1, 3. Petitioner's motion for temporary restraining order seeks his release. He relies on cases in which courts considered the re-detention of a noncitizen who was released from custody under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and then subsequently re-detained pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A). E.g., Elmer Joel M. C. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01622-KES-CDB (HC), 2025 WL 3501200 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 6, 2025). But petitioner's detention appears to be under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)(1)(E), which authorizes detention for "any alien" who "is inadmissible under" 8 U.S.C. §§ 1182(a)(6)(A)(i) or 1182(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) and "is charged with, is arrested for, [or] is convicted of,... any crime that results in death or serious bodily injury to another person." Petitioner fails to establish a likelihood of success on his procedural due process claim, which is the only claim he raises, as his motion does not address the correct statute governing his detention or identify any procedural violation with his redetention. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings on the petition. (JV) (Entered: 03/04/2026)
