Text Order DENYING [] Motion to Expedite. Prompt resolution is already contemplated by the nature of the writ of habeas corpus itself. See Harris v. Nelson, 394 U.S. 286, 291 (1969); see also 28 U.S.C. §2243. The Court will rule on the Petition in due course. Entered by Judge Orlando L. Garcia. (This is a text-only entry generated by the court.

Order on Motion to Expedite
Oct 01, 2026
Text Order DENYING [] Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. Because the injunctive relief Petitioner now seeks on a preliminary and ex parte basis is identical to the ultimate relief sought on the merits of this already-expedited habeas proceeding, the Motion is DENIED. The Court will resolve Petitioners request for relief by promptly ruling on the merits of the writ itself. See Garcia-Aleman v. Thompson, No. 25-CV-886-OLG, Dkt. No. 20 (W.D. Tex. Oct. 30, 2025) (collecting cases). Entered by Judge Orlando L. Garcia. (This is a text-only entry generated by the court. There is no document associated with this entry.) (vc)
