ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE: The Court has received the 1 Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, which states that Petitioner is detained at the Orange County Correctional Facility. Nothing in the Petition indicates that venue is proper in this District. See Ozturk v. Hyde, 136 F.4th 382, 389–90 (2d Cir. 2025) (for a court to "entertain a habeas petition," it must be "filed in the district of confinement" (first citing Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 438 (2004); and then citing 28 U.S.C. § 2242)). Petitioner is therefore ordered to show cause, by June 4, 2026, why this case should not be transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. To preserve the status quo and ensure Petitioner has an opportunity to have his case considered by a court where venue is proper, Respondents are restrained from removing Petitioner from the United States or transferring him to a facility outside of this District or the Southern District of New York unless and until this Court or the transferee court orders otherwise. See Hernandaz v. Lyons, No. 26-CV-0233 (PAE), 2026 WL 145562, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Jan. 20, 2026) (collecting cases issuing similar orders); 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a) (empowering courts to "issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions and agreeable to the usages and principles of law"). Ordered by Judge Pamela K. Chen on 6/2/2026. (JEC)
