MINUTE ORDER (Text Only Entry) Currently pending in this matter is Petitioner's petition for writ of habeas corpus, filed August 10, 2026. (Doc. 1 .) Petitioner indicates that this is his second petition, as he believed the first petition he sent was lost. (Doc. 1 at 6.) Petitioner's first petition was also filed on August 10, 2026, in Case No. 1:26-cv-06306-VC. Review of the two petitions shows Petitioner raises the same claims to challenge his detention and seeks the same relief. Thus, the current petition is DISMISSED duplicative, and Petitioner SHALL proceed with his petition in Case No. 1:26-cv-06306-VC. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate all pending motions and deadlines and to CLOSE this case signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on August 12, 2026.
