EO: The court has received and reviewed Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, ECF No. 1 and Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, ECF No. 4 . Pending the court's decision on the Petition, and unless and until the court orders otherwise, 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, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction"). Upon review of Petitioner's 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and 4 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, the court believes this case would benefit from the appointment of counsel. Accordingly, Petitioner's 3 Motion for Appointment of Counsel is GRANTED. Within seven days from the date of this order, the appointing authority for the Eastern District of California shall identify counsel and send counsel's contact information Smith_Orders@hid.uscourts.gov, who shall update the docket to reflect counsel's appointment. If counsel is not a member of the Eastern District of California Criminal Justice Act Panel, within seven days of this Order the Federal Defender shall file a motion to appoint counsel as CJA counsel pro hac vice. Within fourteen days of appointment of counsel, Petitioner may file a further brief in support of Petitioner's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. The Clerk's Office is directed to serve a copy of the Petition on the Federal Defender. After counsel is appointed, the court will set a schedule for briefing on the Petition. IT IS SO ORDERED.
