MINUTE ORDER (Text Only Entry) The Court has reviewed the Petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (Doc. 1) and the related request for emergency injunctive relief (Doc. 5). Based on the current record, it appears Petitioner (A File #: 200-308-154) is likely to succeed on at least one of his claims and that some form of immediate relief may be appropriate. Thus, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2243, Respondents are ordered to show cause in writing no later than July 20, 2026, why the Court should not grant Petitioner's motion for a temporary restraining order. Any response SHALL provide the Court with copies of referenced/relevant portions of Petitioner's A-File and other supporting documents, including available documentation related to any asserted violations of release conditions. Petitioner may file a reply no later than July 24, 2026. The Court further directs the parties to indicate on or before their respective filing deadlines (1) whether they are requesting a hearing; (2) whether they agree to convert the request for a TRO into a preliminary injunction without further briefing; and (3) whether they request additional briefing on the merits of the petition. Depending on the content of the filings, the Court may set a hearing or may rule on the papers.In the meantime, unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that Respondents shall not remove Petitioner from the United States nor transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting the court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction"). Given the exigent circumstances, the Court finds that this order is warranted to maintain the status quo pending the hearing and any subsequent order and finds that Petitioner has satisfied the factors governing the issuance of such preliminary relief.No later than close of business tomorrow, to the extent not already accomplished, Petitioner's counsel is directed: (1) to serve Respondents with the motion for temporary restraining order and accompanying papers, along with a copy of this Order, by e-mail (noting Petitioner's name and A-File number in the memo line) to all appropriate recipients including the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of California, with a copy to usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov, and by overnight mail; and (2) promptly file proof of such service on the docket. Counsel for respondents shall promptly enter notices of appearance signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on July 13, 2026. (Deputy Clerk IM) (Entered: 07/13/2026)

MINUTE ORDER (Text Only Entry) Currently pending before the Court is Petitioner's petition for writ of habeas corpus and motion for temporary restraining order. (Docs. 1, 5.) The Court has reviewed the record and relevant filings and requires additional information. Specifically, Form I-213 indicates that on August 30, 2022, Petitioner's request for "Stay of Removal" was granted. ( See Doc. 7 at 13.) A month later, on September 30, 2022, ICE released the Petitioner on an Order of Supervision. (Id.) Thus, the Court requires additional information regarding the status of Petitioner's stay of removal and whether such stay prevents Petitioner's removal to Albania. The parties SHALL supplement the record with that information no later than August 20, 2026 signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on August 17, 2026. (Deputy Clerk IM) (Entered: 08/17/2026)
