SCHEDULING NOTICE TEXT ONLY ENTRY (In Chambers) by Magistrate Judge Brianna Fuller Mircheff. The Court issued a Report and Recommendation, which recommends granting the Petition and ordering that Petitioner be released from custody. Either party may file objections to this Court's findings and recommendations under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). By Local Rule, the objections period in a case involving a person in custody is presumptively 20 days. See L.R. 72-3.4. However, the Court finds that a shortened objection period is warranted here given the nature of the relief at issue. See United States v. Barney, 568 F.2d 134, 136 (9th Cir. 1978) (per curiam) (holding that a district court has the discretion to shorten the objection period). The parties must submit any objections to this Report and Recommendation on or before September 8, 2026, at noon; any responses to objections must be filed as soon as possible. If Respondents decide before September 8, 2026, that they do not intend to file objections, they should promptly notify the Court. TEXT ONLY ENTRY. THERE IS NO PDF ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ENTRY.
