District Judge Leo T. Sorokin: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. The Court has reviewed the petitioner’s show-cause submission. The Court will resolve the question of its jurisdiction after hearing from the respondents. The respondents shall file a memorandum addressing the petitioner’s positions, including: 1) whether this Court has jurisdiction over the petition based on the conditions of supervision and the threat of imminent detention cited by the petitioner; and 2) whether this Court has jurisdiction in this context to grant any of the relief sought by the petitioner in this action. The respondents’ answer is due July 15, 2026. This Court always has jurisdiction to determine its own jurisdiction, and it may preserve the status quo to permit such a determination. Thus, pending the Court’s receipt of the respondents’ submission and resolution of the question of its jurisdiction, the respondents shall not remove the petitioner from the United States or from the District of Massachusetts absent 72 hours’ written notice to the Court.(SED) (Entered: 07/08/2026)
