TEXT ORDER This matter comes before the Court upon Petitioner Carmelo Garcia Poz Chan's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 and motion for temporary restraining order, D.E. 1 ("Petition and TRO Motion"). Petitioner challenges his detention by immigration authorities as unlawful and seeks immediate release. In accordance with Rule 4 of the Rules Governing 2254 Cases, applicable to § 2241 cases through Rule 1(b), scope of the Rules, this Court has screened the Petition for dismissal and determined dismissal without an answer is not warranted. Respondents shall file an expedited answer to the Petition within 7 days. In that answer, Respondents shall inform the Court whether they stipulate that Petitioner has no criminal record. The TRO Motion is DISMISSED as MOOT because the Court has enjoined Petitioner's transfer, see D.E. 2, and expedited resolution of the Petition. So Ordered by Judge Evelyn Padin on 3/28/2026. (jml, ) (Entered: 03/28/2026)
