MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 7/8/2026: The Court has reviewed Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ) and Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (ECF No. 3 ). The issues raised in Count 1 of the Petition appear to mirror those previously addressed by the Court in many prior cases. See Garcia Mariagua v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-cv-01744-DJC-CSK; Ortega v. Noem, No. 1:25-cv-01663-DJC-CKD; Lopez v. Lyons, No. 2:25-cv-03174-DJC-CKD. The Court intends to rule directly on the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus, with the understanding that the Court will also consider any arguments made and exhibits submitted in support of the 3 motion for temporary restraining order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a)(2) ("Before or after beginning the hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction, the court may advance the trial on the merits and consolidate it with the hearing."); see also 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."); Dzhabrailov v. Decker, No. 20-cv-03118-PMH, 2020 WL 2731966, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. May 26, 2020) (considering preliminary injunction and merits of habeas petition simultaneously). On or before July 14, 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 Court's prior orders listed above and justify denying the petition, or indicate this matter is not substantively distinguishable. This matter is not set for a hearing though the Court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. [TEXT ONLY ORDER] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 07/08/2026)

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 7/15/2026: On July 7, 2026, Petitioner filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1 ) and a Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (ECF No. 3 ). Based on the information in the Petition, the Court determined that it appeared Petitioner was entitled to relief and ordered a return pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 2243. (ECF No. 7 .) Based on the information in the return, it is no longer clear that Petitioner is entitled to relief as required by 8 U.S.C. § 2243, as he may be subject to mandatory detention under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(c). (See ECF No. 8 .) However, the Court believes this case would benefit from the appointment of counsel. Within seven (7) 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 gmichel@caed.uscourts.gov, who shall update the docket to reflect counsel's appointment. If counsel is not a member of the Eastern District of California Criminal Justice Act Panel, within seven (7) days of this Order the Federal Defender shall file a motion to appoint counsel as CJA counsel pro hac vice. This matter is REFERRED to the assigned Magistrate Judge for full briefing. The Clerk's Office is directed to serve a copy of the petition on the Federal Defender.
