MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 4/07/2026: (Text Only Entry). The Court has reviewed the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus and 2 motion for temporary restraining order. The 1 petition appears to raise legal issues that this Court has previously addressed. See e.g., Ramazan M. v. Andrews, No. 1:25-CV-01356-KES-SKO (HC), 2025 WL 3145562 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 10, 2025); R.A.N.O. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01535-KES-EPG (HC), 2026 WL 40507 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 6, 2026); Omer G. G. v. Kaiser, No. 1:25-CV-01471-KES-SAB (HC), 2025 WL 3254999 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 22, 2025). The Court intends to rule directly on the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus, with the understanding that the Court will also consider any arguments made and exhibits submitted in support of the 2 motion for temporary restraining order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a)(2) ("Before or after beginning the hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction, the court may advance the trial on the merits and consolidate it with the hearing."); see also 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The court shall summarily hear and determine the facts, and dispose of [a petitioner's habeas petition] as law and justice require."); Dzhabrailov v. Decker, No. 20-CV-3118 (PMH), 2020 WL 2731966, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. May 26, 2020) (considering preliminary injunction and merits of habeas petition simultaneously). On or before April 9, 2026, respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that distinguish it from the Court's prior orders in Ramazan M. v. Andrews, R.A.N.O. v. Wofford, and Omer G. G. v. Kaiser and justify denying the petition, or indicate the matter is not substantively distinguishable. Pending the Court's decision, and unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that respondents shall not transfer petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction").

RESPONSE by Warden, California City Correctional Center to 7 Minute Order,,,,,,,, 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, 2 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. (Andrews, Anthony) (Entered: 04/09/2026)

#9

Apr 14, 2026

MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 4/14/2026: (Text Only Entry): The 2 motion for temporary restraining order is denied. Respondents' records show that petitioner is currently charged by immigration authorities as inadmissible pursuant to 8 U.S.C. §§ 1182(a)(6)(A)(i) and 1182(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) and that petitioner is currently charged by state authorities with felony burglary. Doc. 8, Exs. 2, 4. Petitioner's motion for temporary restraining order argues that his detention is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a), which provides for a bond hearing. See Doc. 2 . But petitioner's detention appears to be under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)(1)(E), which authorizes detention for "any alien" who "is inadmissible under" 8 U.S.C. §§ 1182(a)(6)(A)(i) or 1182(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) and "is charged with, is arrested for, [or] is convicted of,... any burglary... offense[.]" 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)(1)(E). As it appears from the record that the burglary charges against petitioner remain pending, see Doc. 8, Ex. 4, petitioner fails to establish a likelihood of success on the merits as his motion does not address the correct statute governing his detention. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings on the petition. (Deputy Clerk VMG) (Entered: 04/14/2026)

MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Erin Guy Castillo on 5/13/2026: (Text Only Entry). On April 14, 2026, the District Court issued an order 9 denying Petitioner's motion 2 for temporary restraining order. On April 15, 2026, the Court issued an order 10 directing the parties to advise the Court within five (5) days whether they wished to provide additional briefing. On April 20, 2026, Petitioner submitted further briefing 11 . In addition to his previous arguments, Petitioner now contends his prolonged detention of fifteen months without a bond hearing violates his due process rights. The petition indicates, however, that Petitioner has only been detained since January 5, 2026, a period of only four months. Insofar as this argument was not advanced until now, Respondent is directed to file a response within thirty (30) days of this order. (Deputy Clerk WAK) (Entered: 05/13/2026)

Petitioner also filed a motion 15 to correct his earlier filing to reflect the date of his detention as January 5, 2025, rather than January 5, 2026. Petitioner's motion is GRANTED.
