PAPERLESS ORDER. THIS MATTER is before the Court sua sponte. On May 4, 2026, Petitioner filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 ("Petition") (DE 1 at 8) challenging his continued confinement by immigration officials. Upon review of the Petition, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows:(1) Respondent(s) SHALL NOT transfer or otherwise move Petitioner from his current place of detention until further order of the Court.(2) Within five (5) days of the date of entry of this Order, the Respondent SHALL file a memorandum of fact and law ("Response") to show cause why the Petition should not be granted and shall file all necessary documents for resolution of the Petition. Respondent shall provide Petitioner complete copies of all documents in support of its Response. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(c); see also Rodriguez v. Fla. Dep't of Corr., 748 F.3d 1073 (11th Cir. 2014). (3) Petitioner may, but is not required to, file a Reply within ten (10) days of Respondent's Response. The Reply shall not exceed ten (10) pages and shall otherwise comply with the Court's Local Rules governing the form of filings. See S.D. Fla. R. 7.1(c); S.D. Fla. L.R. 5.1(a)(4). Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams (nn) (Entered: 05/11/2026)

PAPERLESS ORDER striking Petitioner's "Emergency Motion for Immediate Release From Detention" ("Motion") as it suffers from several deficiencies.First, Petitioner's Motion is styled as an expedited motion requesting immediate release under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The Court notes that it has already issued an Order to Show Cause (DE 4 ), rendering this request moot. Moreover, because Petitioner has already filed a habeas petition seeking the same relief (DE 1 ), the instant Motion appears duplicative and unnecessary. Second, although Petitioner designates the Motion as "expedited," it fails to comply with Southern District of Florida Local Rule 7.1(d)(2). Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Petitioner's Motion is STRICKEN. The Respondent need not file a response addressing the merits of the Petitioner's Motion. Should Petitioner intend to refile the Motion, he must fully cure the deficiencies outlined above no later than May 18, 2026. To the extent Petitioner seeks both a temporary restraining order and a permanent injunction, he must file those as separate motions. If Petitioner wishes to proceed solely on his habeas petition, he shall file a notice informing the Court by the same date. Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams (nn) (Entered: 05/11/2026)
