MINUTE ORDER (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER GRANTING IN PART MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND SETTING BRIEFING SCHEDULE RE PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION by Judge Hernan D. Vera. The Court therefore grants the Application in part. Respondents are enjoined from transferring, relocating, or removing Petitioner outside of the Central District of California (including, but not limited to, transferring Petitioner to an ICE facility outside of the Central District or removing Petitioner from the United States) pending further order of the Court. The Court sets the matter for hearing on May 4, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. as to whether a preliminary injunction should issue. The Application will be considered the opening brief on that issue. Respondents' opposition is due by April 29, 2026. Respondents should address the ways in which this case is similar to or distinguishable from the analysis in De Rosas Gutierrez and Sanchez Arcos and other similar orders issued by other courts in analogous circumstances. The Court refers the case to the Federal Public Defender ("FPD") for consideration of appointment of counsel for Petitioner. The FPD is ordered to file a response by May 1, 2026, indicating whether the FPD will represent Petitioner in this matter. (lom) (Entered: 04/24/2026)
