SERVICE AND APPOINTMENT OF COUNSEL ORDER Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Federal Public Defender for the District of Nevada is appointed to represent Petitioner and is directed to file a notice of appearance (or indicate its inability to represent Petitioner) within 3 days of the date of this Order. If the Federal Public Defender is unable to represent Petitioner, because of a conflict of interest or for any other reason, alternate counsel will be appointed. Appointed counsel will represent Petitioner in all federal proceedings related to this matter, including any appeals or certiorari proceedings, unless allowed to withdraw. Moreover, the Court finds that ordering Respondents to produce documents relevant to the lawfulness of Petitioner's detention is necessary for the Court to "dispose of the matter as law and justice require." See Harris v. Nelson, 394 U.S. 286, 290 (1969). Therefore, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Federal Respondents must PRODUCE the following documents to Petitioner's Counsel within 7 days of the date of this Order: (1) I-200 Warrant for Arrest of Alien; (2) Form I-286 Initial Custody Determination; (3) I-862 Notice to Appear; (4) Form I-213 Record of Deportable or Inadmissible Alien; (5) all immigration court orders in Petitioner's removal proceedings; (6) documents certifying any appeal of any immigration court orders by Department of Homeland Security or Petitioner; (7) transcripts and/or audio recordings of any custody redetermination proceedings.5 Alternatively, Federal Respondents may CERTIFY that any of the listed documents are not in their custody or control. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner's Counsel must (1) file a motion to proceed IFP or pay the $5 filing fee on behalf of the Petitioner and (2) file an Amended Petition (or indicate that an amended petition is unnecessary) within 14 days of the date of this Order. The Federal Public Defender shall effectuate service of the Amended Petition on the Respondents. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is kindly directed to: See Order for additional information. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Nevada file a notice of appearance within 7 days of the date of this Order and file and serve their answer to the Amended Petition within 7 days of service of the counseled Amended Petition, unless additional time is allowed for good cause shown. Petitioner will then have 7 days to file a reply. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties must meet and confer regarding any requests for an extension of deadlines and stipulate to the extension if possible. Any motion for extension must certify efforts taken to meet and confer and indicate the opposing party's position regarding the extension. Any motion or stipulation must comply with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b) and Local Rules IA 6-1, 6-2. The Court is not inclined to look favorably on requests for extensions beyond the first request. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties must refrain from includingor must partially redact, where inclusion is necessarypersonal-data identifiers from all documents filed with the court, unless the court orders otherwise. The parties are instructed to file documents in compliance with the text and spirit of LR IC 6-1 and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 5.2(a) by redacting birth dates, fingerprints, A-Numbers, passport numbers, and any other personal-data identifiers or sensitive information where applicable. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that parties filing a redacted filing must also file an unredacted copy under seal for the Court's records. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 5.2(d) ("The court may order that a filing be made under seal without redaction."); see also LR IC 6-1(b). IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that in order to maintain jurisdiction and provide a prompt resolution, the Respondents shall not transfer Petitioner out of this District unless the Court grants a motion or stipulation to modify this order.

MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Gloria M. Navarro on 5/26/2026. Pending before the Court is the Federal Respondents' 16 Motion to Extend Time. Federal Respondents seek a 10-day extension of time to file a response to the Amended Petition and Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. Because this is a straightforward case seeking relief under Zadvydas, the Court finds that an extended briefing schedule of an additional 10 days is not warranted here. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the 16 Motion to Extend Time is GRANTED, in part, and DENIED, in part. Federal Respondents' responses to the Amended Petition and Temporary Restraining Order are due no later than May 28, 2026.(Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - ANH) (Entered: 05/26/2026)
