TEXT ORDER: Petitioner filed a pro se Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. D.E. 1 ("Petition"). Petitioner challenges his immigration detention in Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, but he provides his address is in Westlake Village, California. Id. 11. 57. Therefore, it is unclear whether Petitioner remains detained in New Jersey or whether he is represented by counsel in California, in which case counsel is required to seek admission to the District of New Jersey pro hac vice pursuant to District of New Jersey Local Civil Rule 101.1(c). Therefore, Petitioner shall file an Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, explaining his detention status and whether he is represented by counsel in California. The Clerk shall serve a copy of the docket sheet containing this Text Order, along with an application to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP Application") on Petitioner at the address he provided. If Petitioner submits his completed IFP application and demonstrates his financial inability to hire a private attorney, he may request appointment of counsel. Alternatively, if Petitioner is represented by counsel, counsel may seek admission pro hac vice. If Petitioner wishes to proceed pro se, he shall provide his mailing address at Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey. So Ordered by Judge Evelyn Padin on 10/28/2025. (bt) (Entered: 10/28/2025)
