ORDER FOR SERVICE--It is further ORDERED that:1. Respondents must file a response to the Petition (Dkt. No. 1) within 10 days after service. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243.

If Petitioner elects to file a reply, he may do so no later than 7 days after the Respondents response is filed. Signed by Judge Orlando L. Garcia. (bt) (Entered: 04/08/2026)
