TEXT ORDER: The Court acknowledges receipt of Respondents' letter (ECF No. 4) advising that Petitioner was transferred to Richwood Correctional Center in Monroe, Louisiana on September 11, 2026 prior to the filing of the Petition (ECF No. 1) and prior to the entry of this Court's transfer injunction (ECF No. 2). A petition for writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 generally must be filed in the district of confinement and name the petitioner's immediate custodian as respondent. See Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 434-35 (2004). Because the record reflects that Petitioner was confined in Louisiana at the time this action was commenced, this Court lacks jurisdiction over the Petition. Id. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, the Clerk shall TRANSFER this matter to the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631 and CLOSE this case. So Ordered by Judge Jamel K. Semper on 9/29/2026. (sms) [Transferred from New Jersey on 9/30/2026.] (Entered: 09/29/2026)
