ORDER granting in part and denying in part 5 Letter Motion for Extension of Time. The request for an extension is granted in part and denied in part. Given the allegations in the petition, and the liberty interest at stake, respondents should determine before Tuesday whether continued detention of petitioner is, in their view, legally justified. If not, he should be released. If so, then respondents should file a letter setting out the reasons why detention is warranted, and attaching any relevant supporting documents. Respondents may supplement that letter on Thursday with a formal responsive brief and return to the petition. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motion at ECF No. 5. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Arun Subramanian on 5/21/2026) (tg) (Entered: 05/21/2026)
