MINUTE ORDER (Text Only Entry). The Court has reviewed the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus which also includes a request for emergency relief in the form of a temporary restraining order. ECF No. 1. Ruling on the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and the request for a temporary restraining order is reserved at this time. Respondents shall file any opposition to the Petition, including the request for temporary restraining order contained therein, by April 23, 2026. Any response must include Petitioner's (A-File # 222514299) full Form I-213, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants or notices, and any other portions of Petitioner's A-File relevant to the determination of the issues presented in the Petition, including available documentation related to any asserted violations of release conditions. Failure to timely respond shall be construed as a non-opposition. See L.R. 230(c). Petitioner may file a reply by April 27, 2026. The parties are directed to indicate on or before their respective filing deadlines (1) whether they are requesting a hearing; (2) whether they agree to convert the request for a TRO into a preliminary injunction without further briefing; and (3) whether they request additional briefing on the merits of the petition. Depending on the content of the filings, the Court may set a hearing or may rule on the papers. In the meantime, pending a ruling on the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, 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, 608 (1966) (noting the court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction."). The Clerk of the Court is to notify the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of California of this filing, by providing a Notice of Electronic Filing to usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov. Signed by Visiting Judge Rebecca L Pennell on 4/20/2026 (Text Only Entry). (Deputy Clerk LLH) (Entered: 04/20/2026)
