ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE by District Judge David H. Urias. The Court has reviewed the Petition sua sponte under Habeas Corpus Rule 4 and finds that dismissal is not warranted, and a response is necessary. Pursuant to the Standing Order regarding service, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Respondents must answer the Petition and show cause why it should not be granted within ten (10) business days of this Order. Petitioner's reply, if any, is due five (5) business days after the Response is filed. If Respondents fail to timely answer, the Court may grant the requested relief without further proceedings. Petitioner's Motion to Stay Transfer (Doc. 3) is GRANTED, in part, and Respondents are enjoined from transferring Petitioner outside of the District of New Mexico unless and until he is subject to a final removal order. Petitioner's emergency motions (Docs. 2, 4) for release or expedited consideration - which request the same relief as the Petition but on an immediate, ex parte basis - are DENIED without prejudice to considering relief after a response is filed. The Clerk's Office shall confirm that the docket lists the following Respondents: the facility Warden; Markwayne Mullin, Secretary, U.S. Department of Homeland Security; Todd Lyons, Acting Director, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement; Mary De Anda-Ybarra, Director, El Paso Field Office, Enforcement and Removal Operations; and U.S. Attorney General.
