MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 03/24/2026. Petitioner, Tania Moreno Gomez (A# not listed), a self-represented immigration detainee, filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 and paid the filing fee. ECF No. 1 . The court has reviewed the 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, which asserts petitioner's detention violates the Immigration and Nationality Act ("INA")and the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause and seeks, among other things, her immediate release. Because petitioner may be entitled to the requested relief if the claimed violations are proved, respondents will be served with the § 2241 petition and directed to show cause why the writ should not be granted by filing an answer/return. The Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this order together with a copy of petitioner's application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 on the United States Attorney. Respondents are directed to file an answer/return within 14 days from the date of this order, which shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues that materially distinguish this case from Perez v. Warden, 2:26-cv-0873 DJC AC, 2026 WL 788131 (E.D. Cal. March 20, 2026) and E.L.D.M. v. Becerra, No. 1:25-cv-1906 DJC JDP, 2025 WL 3707140 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 22, 2025), with respect to Count 1 (violation of the INA). If respondents dispute any factual representations in the operative petition, they shall include with the answer/return any and all documents necessary to support their view of the facts. Petitioner's reply/traverse, if any, is due within 7 days of being served a copy of the respondents' answer/return. Respondents shall NOT TRANSFER petitioner outside of this judicial district, pending further order of the court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a) (establishing the All Writs Act which empowers the federal courts to "issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions...."); see also F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (emphasizing that federal courts have the power to "to preserve the court's jurisdiction or maintain the status quo by injunction pending review of an agency's action").
