MOTION for TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER by Angel Luque Balondon. (Deputy Clerk CRM) (Entered: 08/24/2026)

#12

Aug 24, 2026

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. 11 ). Petitioner (A File #: 888-657-834) has been in custody nearly three months (Doc. 1 at 5) He does not explain his delay in seeking his request for a temporary restraining order or why despite this delay, the Court should treat the situation as an emergency. Thus, the TRO request is untimely, and it is DENIED. Local Rule 231(b). 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, to preserve the Court's jurisdiction and to preserve Petitioner's access to the Court and any subsequent order and finds that Petitioner has satisfied the factors governing the issuance of such preliminary relief. Minute Order signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on 8/24/2026. (Deputy Clerk OR) (Entered: 08/24/2026)
