TEXT ORDER re 1 Petition. The parties are advised that the Court intends to hold a hearing on the pending petition (Dkt. 1) and believes it would be reasonable under the circumstances to shorten the deadlines set forth in the Court's standing order for habeas petitions. Accordingly, on or before December 21, 2025, counsel are directed to meet and confer in an attempt to reach agreement on an abbreviated briefing schedule for this matter and to advise the Court of dates that they are mutually available for a hearing. If the parties cannot agree, they may submit competing proposals on or before the same date. The submissions should be made by letter and shall be filed on the docket. Absent submission(s) in accordance with this Text Order, the Court will sua sponte set the briefing schedule and schedule a hearing. In addition, the Court temporarily enjoins Respondents from transferring Petitioner outside this District pending a resolution of the petition because the Court finds that Petitioner's presence in the District is necessary to support the Court's resolution of the issues in the petition, including because it will enable Petitioner to fully participate in these proceedings and maintain adequate access to legal counsel. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("Unless the application for the writ and the return present only issues of law the person to whom the writ is directed shall be required to produce at the hearing the body of the person detained. The applicant or the person detained may, under oath, deny any of the facts set forth in the return or allege any other material facts."). This temporary order extends to the transfer of Petitioner outside the country so as to maintain the status quo and solely so that the Court can make an informed decision about its authority to issue relief and whether any relief that it has the power to issue should be granted.Further, the Clerk's Office is directed to serve a copy of the petition and this Text Order electronically via a Notice of Electronic Filing to the United States Attorney's Office, Western District of New York at USANYW-Immigration-Habeas@usdoj.gov. SO ORDERED. Signed by Hon. Elizabeth A. Wolford on 12/18/2025. (MGB)Clerk to Follow up (Entered: 12/18/2025)
