TEXT ORDER: In its filing at ECF 12, the Respondents have argued that this Court lacks jurisdiction to consider the Petitioner's claims under the Administrative Procedure Act and United States Constitution, which stem from the Petitioner's re-detention several years after his release on parole in 2021. The Respondents first argue that 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(A)(i) strips this Court of jurisdiction to "entertain any... cause or claim arising from or relating to the implementation or operation of an order of removal pursuant to section 1225(b)(1)." See ECF 12 at 1. The Respondents also asserts that 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(9) strips this court of jurisdiction because the Petitioner has been issued a final order of removal --- and that once "there is an administratively final removal order, [a] Petitioner's detention claims are... inextricably linked" to that order. See id. at 2 (citing Khalil v. President, United States, 164 F.4th 259 (3d Cir. 2026)). But this is the extent of the Respondents' analysis. They have offered no analysis of the statutory text, nor have they mustered any meaningful arguments from case law. And while the Court has an independent obligation to assure itself of jurisdiction, the arguments before it are too little to go on. The Respondents shall file a more fulsome brief developing its arguments for lack of jurisdiction on or before May 29 at 5:00pm. The Court is particularly interested in the Respondents views on how the claims before the Court are "inextricably linked" to the Petitioner's final order of removal --- how is the Court to know, for example, whether this issue will or will not be adjudicated later before the BIA and ultimately the PFR court? The Court is also interested in the parties' views on whether the applicability of Section 1252(a)(2)'s jurisdiction strip depends upon whether the Court concludes that the Petitioner is being lawfully detained under Section 1225(b)(1), as the Respondents assert. See ECF 6 . The Petitioner shall file a response to the Respondents' filing on or before June 2 at 10:00am. So Ordered by Judge Michael E. Farbiarz on 5/26/2026. (ps) (Entered: 05/26/2026)

TEXT ORDER: The letter at ECF 18 is generic. It does not contain information that is particular to the Petitioner. If the Petitioner wishes to provide the Court with information specific to himself, he may do so. But as things stand there is no basis for relief. So Ordered by Judge Michael E. Farbiarz on 5/26/26.
