ORDER On March 26, 2026, in accordance with the Court's order to show cause (ECF No. 10), the Respondents filed their response, opposing the Petitioner's petition for writ of habeas corpus. (ECF No. 11). Shortly after the Respondents' opposition, however, the Petitioner filed an amended verified petition for writ of habeas corpus (ECF No. 12). Given that the Respondents filed their opposition without the new information in the Petitioner's amended petition, if the Respondents wish to file an amended response in opposition to the amended petition, the Court ORDERS the Respondents to do so no later than Friday, March 27, 2026. If Respondents do not file an amended response, the Court will rule on the filings then before it. By JUDGE JOHN A. WOODCOCK, JR. (jam) (Entered: 03/26/2026)
