MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Chief District Judge Troy L. Nunley on 5/21/2026: This matter is before the Court on Petitioner's Ex-Parte Motion for Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO") requesting the Court restrain Respondents from transferring Petitioner outside this district pending a ruling on his habeas petition. (ECF No. 2 .) The Court has reviewed Petitioner's motion and finds Petitioner has met his burden establishing a TRO is warranted under the factors articulated in Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20 (2008). Additionally, the Court routinely issues such orders. Accordingly, Petitioner's Motion for TRO is GRANTED. Pending the outcome of the habeas petition, unless the Court orders otherwise, Respondents shall not transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 608 (1966) (noting the court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction."). This matter is referred to the assigned Magistrate Judge for further proceedings pursuant to Local Rule 302 and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). SO ORDERED.
