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. 3 . Upon review of the Petition and Motion, the court believes this case would benefit from the appointment of counsel. Petitioner's 2 Motion to Appoint 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 to Smith_Orders@hid.uscourts.gov, which shall update the docket to reflect counsel's appointment. Within fourteen days of appointment of counsel, Petitioner may supplement the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. 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 1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and 3 Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. And given the court's ongoing consideration of Petitioner's Petition, and unless and until the court orders otherwise, the court ORDERS that Respondents shall not transfer or otherwise take Petitioner out of the Eastern District of California. 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"). IT IS SO ORDERED. (JUDGE MICAH W. J. SMITH) (ab) (Entered: 06/16/2026)
