ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE Petitioner David Gomez-Gomez, an immigration detainee, has filed a counseled Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ). Through it, he challenges the lawfulness of his ongoing detention at Nevada Southern Detention Center in the custody of Federal Respondents. The Court has reviewed the Petition and preliminarily finds Petitioner can likely demonstrate that his circumstances warrant the same relief as this Court ordered for Petitioners Mena-Vargas and Reyes-Lopez in Escobar Salgado v. Mattos, No. 2:25-cv-01872-RFB-EJY, 2025 WL 3205356 (D. Nev. Nov. 17, 2025) (No. 25). Therefore, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why the Writ should not be granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243. Respondents shall file, in writing, a (i) notice of appearance and (ii) "a return certifying the true cause of detention" on or before March 30, 2026. See id. Petitioner may file a traverse on or before April 2, 2026. See Order to Show Cause for additional information. Signed by Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 3/25/2026. (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF. A copy of the Petition (ECF No. 1 ), attachments (ECF Nos. 1 -1, 1 -2, 1 -3, 1 -4, 1 -5, 1 -6, 1 -7, 1 -8), and this Order distributed as instructed. - RJDG) (Entered: 03/25/2026)
