Judge Brian E. Murphy: ELECTRONIC ORDER. “[A]s a general rule, a petitioner must file a habeas petition in the district in which they are confined and must name as a respondent the petitioner’s immediate custodian.” Ozturk v. Trump, 777 F. Supp. 3d 26, 34 (D. Mass. 2025) (citing Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 442-47 (2004)). This Court lacks jurisdiction over the habeas petition because Petitioner was not detained in Massachusetts when he filed his petition. See Padilla, 542 U.S. at 442. On October 15, 2026, at approximately 10:00 a.m., Petitioner was transported from Massachusetts to New Hampshire, where he is currently confined. Dkt. 6 at 1. Petitioner filed the habeas petition at approximately 12:00 p.m. on October 15, 2026. Dkt. 1 . In the circumstances of this case, transferring his petition to the District of New Hampshire is in the interests of justice. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1404(a), 1406(a), 1631. Accordingly, Petitioner’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 is hereby TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the District of Hampshire pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1404(a), 1406(a), and 1631. (MBM) (Entered: 10/16/2026)
