MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 4/13/2026. The Court is in receipt of Petitioner's 6 First Amended Petition. The Court has reviewed the Petition and preliminarily finds Petitioner can likely demonstrate that he is a member of the certified class ("Class Member") in Jacobo-Ramirez v. Mullin, No. 25-cv-02136-RFB-MDC (D. Nev.) and entitled to relief pursuant to the Court's classwide declaratory judgment and vacatur. See Jacobo Ramirez v. Mullin, No. 2:25-cv-02136-RFB-MDC, 2026 LX 175584 (D. Nev. Mar. 30, 2026).Therefore, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why Petitioner is NOT a Class Member AND 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 April 16, 2026. See id. Petitioner may file a traverse on or before April 20, 2026.IT IS FURTHER ORDERED the Parties shall indicate in their briefing whether they request oral argument or an evidentiary hearing on the Petition. The Court is amenable to ruling on the papers if the Parties indicate that they are willing to waive a hearing. Unless Respondents contend Petitioner is not a Class Member, Respondents should not reargue their statutory interpretation under 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A). That statutory issue has been fully litigated by Federal Respondents and finally resolved by the Court in its classwide judgment. (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - CMB) (Entered: 04/13/2026)
