(IN CHAMBERS) Order Denying Without Prejudice Petitioner's Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (ECF 1 ) by Magistrate Judge Stephanie S. Christensen. The Court denies Petitioner's motion for a TRO because the briefing schedule on Petitioner's underlying habeas petition has been expedited and Respondent has been ordered to provide at least two court days' notice of its intent to remove Petitioner from this judicial district such that Petitioner cannot show irreparable harm warranting a TRO during the pendency of his habeas proceedings. See Granny Goose Foods, Inc. v. Bhd. of Teamsters, 415 U.S. 423, 439 (1974) (the underlying purpose of a TRO is "preserving the status quo and preventing irreparable harm just so long as is necessary to hold a hearing.") Accordingly, Petitioner"s motion for a TRO (ECF 1) is DENIED without prejudice. (tsn) (Entered: 09/15/2026)
