EO: The court has received and reviewed Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, Dkt. No. 1, and Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order, Dkt. No. 2 . The petition and motion appear to raise legal issues addressed by several decisions in this court and others, particularly whether Petitioner is entitled to a bond hearing under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a). See, e.g., Anderson O.H.G. V. Johnson, 1:26-cv-03248-MWJS, 2026 WL 1330831 (E.D. Cal. May 12, 2026); Jose C.L.L. v. Chestnut, No. 1:26-cv-03453-MWJS, 2026 WL 1275305 (E.D. Cal. May 7, 2026); Francisco C.T. v. Warden, Cal. City Corr. Ctr., No. 1:26-cv-03308-MWJS, 2026 WL 1234218 (E.D. Cal. May 4, 2026). Given the substantial percolation of these issues, the court intends to rule directly on the Petition. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The court shall summarily hear and determine the facts, and dispose of [a petitioner's habeas petition] as law and justice require."). On or before June 24, 2026, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that render it distinguishable from the prior orders listed above and justify denying the Petition, or indicate this matter is not substantively distinguishable. Petitioner may file a reply on or before June 25, 2026. This matter is not set for a hearing, though the court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. Pending the court's decision, 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 California Energy Comm'n v. Johnson, 767 F.2d 631, 634 (9th Cir. 1985) ("The All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), empowers the federal courts to issue writs of mandamus necessary to protect their prospective jurisdiction."). Because the Motion, Dkt. No. 2, seeks only an order barring Respondents from transferring Petitioner--which is effectively the same relief provided by this status quo order--the Motion is DENIED AS MOOT. IT IS SO ORDERED.
