TEXT ORDER. Respondents seek a 10-day extension through April 23, 2026, in which to file a Response to the 1 Second Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Counsel for Respondents states additional time is needed to gather and review documents relevant to J.O.P. v. U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security (D. Md. 2020). Petitioner filed 10 Response opposing the extension arguing that Respondents have been aware of J.O.P. for a substantial amount of time and additional time to respond is not warranted. Given the short extension requested, the Court hereby grants Respondents' 9 Motion for Extension of Time to File Response. Response to the 1 Petition is due on or before April 23, 2026. A Reply if any should be filed within 10 days of the Response being docketed. Signed by Judge Stephanie L. Haines on 4/14/2026. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (cag) (Entered: 04/14/2026)
