TEXT ORDER: Before filing her petition in this matter, Petitioner previously filed a habeas petition that remains pending before this Court raising an essentially identical challenge to her immigration detention under Docket Number 26-10389. This matter therefore appears to be duplicative of that earlier filed matter, and Petitioner is directed to show cause within three days why this matter should not be dismissed as duplicative of her earlier filed petition in 26-10389. So Ordered by Judge Zahid N. Quraishi on 8/24/2026. (ijf) (Entered: 08/24/2026)
