MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 12/18/2025. Before the Court is Respondents' Motion 7 to extend time to respond to 5 this Court's Order to Show Cause.The Court makes the following findings:1. Respondents necessarily would have to possess the following documents to detain Petitioner: Notice to Appear (Form I-862), Form I-213, Form I-286, and in most cases, an arrest warrant. 2. These documents are uniquely in the possession of Respondents as the agencies and individuals responsible for Petitioner's detention. Therefore, Respondents have the responsibility to preserve these documents and make them available to Petitioner.3. Given the statutory and constitutional rights at issue, Respondents have a duty and obligation to ensure they have adequate resources to maintain and provide accurate information regarding people whom they arrest or detain.Furthermore, Respondents have now been party to dozens of substantially similar immigration matters before this Court and submitted near-identical arguments in essentially every response and/or return. The Court has already granted Respondents' counsel leave to incorporate by reference their prior pleadings for this precise reason.For these reasons, the Court finds that there is not good cause for an extension greater than 6 days, absent exceptional circumstances. The administrative burdens cited by Respondents do not constitute exceptional circumstances in the instant case.Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Respondents' Motion is GRANTED in part. Respondents' deadline to file a Return is hereby extended to 12/21/2025. The Court advises the parties that no further extensions will be granted absent a showing of exceptional circumstances.
