MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 8/17/2026: (Text Only Entry). The Court has reviewed the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus and 2 motion for temporary restraining order. The Court has previously addressed the legal issues raised by the 1 petition. See e.g., Medvezhov v. Warden, No. 1:26-CV-05918-KES-SAB (HC), 2026 WL 2234501 (E.D. Cal. Aug. 3, 2026); Arikapudi v. Andrews, No. 1:26-CV-05805-KES-EGC (HC), 2026 WL 2368115 (E.D. Cal. Aug. 16, 2026). 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 2 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-3118 (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 August 19, 2026, respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that distinguish it from the Court's prior orders in Medvezhov v. Warden and Arikapudi v. Andrews and justify denying the petition, or indicate the matter is not substantively distinguishable. The response shall include a copy of all referenced/relevant documents from petitioner's A-file, including any Form I-200, Warrant for Arrest of Alien. Pending the Court's decision, and unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that respondents shall not transfer petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction").
