MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Cristina D. Silva on 12/29/2025. The respondents move for a two-week extension of time to respond to Humberto Perez's petition for writ of habeas corpus. ECF No. 7 . Although Perez opposes any extension of time, this is the first request, and I find good cause to grant it. So the respondents' deadline to file their response is extended to January 7, 2026. Also, the respondents must file a response to Perez's emergency motion for temporary restraining order by that same date. See ECF No. 8. Finally, the parties are ordered to appear for a hearing on the petition and TRO on January 9, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. in LV Courtroom 6B.

MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Cristina D. Silva on 1/7/2026. John Mattos's counsel seeks permission to appear virtually for the January 9th hearing. ECF No. 13 . Counsel submits that a remote appearance would conserve resources and would not hinder arguments as Mattos has no independent authority to release the petitioner. Id. I find good cause to grant the motion. Counsel is advised to contact the courtroom administrator for the Zoom link information.
