MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 3/25/2026: The Court is in receipt of Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ). On review the issues raised in Counts 1 and 2 of the Petition appear to mirror those previously addressed by the Court in many prior cases. See Garcia Mariagua v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-cv-01744-DJC-CSK; Ortega v. Noem, No. 1:25-cv-01663-DJC-CKD; Lopez v. Lyons, No. 2:25-cv-03174-DJC-CKD. Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or before March 31, 2026, as to why the Court should not grant a writ of habeas corpus as to Counts 1 and 2 by filing a return as provided in 28 U.S.C. § 2243. In such a return, Respondents identify any factual or legal issues in this case that render it distinguishable from the Court's prior orders listed above and justify denying the petition, or indicate this matter is not substantively distinguishable. This matter is not set for a hearing though the Court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. The Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this Order together with a copy of Petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 on the United States Attorney. Counsel for Respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance. [TEXT ONLY ORDER] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 03/25/2026)
