STANDING ORDER IN RE CASES FILED BY PRO SE PLAINTIFFS (See 24-MISC-127 Standing Order filed March 18, 2024). To ensure that all cases heard in the Southern District of New York are handled promptly and efficiently, all parties must keep the court apprised of any new contact information. It is a party's obligation to provide an address for service; service of court orders cannot be accomplished if a party does not update the court when a change of address occurs. Accordingly, all self-represented litigants are hereby ORDERED to inform the court of each change in their address or electronic contact information. Parties may consent to electronic service to receive notifications of court filings by email, rather than relying on regular mail delivery. Parties may also ask the court for permission to file documents electronically. Forms, including instructions for consenting to electronic service and requesting permission to file documents electronically, may be found by clicking on the hyperlinks in this order, or by accessing the forms on the courts website, nysd.uscourts.gov/forms. The procedures that follow apply only to cases filed by pro se plaintiffs. If the court receives notice from the United States Postal Service that an order has been returned to the court, or otherwise receives information that the address of record for a self-represented plaintiff is no longer valid, the court may issue an Order to Show Cause why the case should not be dismissed without prejudice for failure to comply with this order. Such order will be sent to the plaintiffs last known address and will also be viewable on the court's electronic docket. A notice directing the parties' attention to this order shall be docketed (and mailed to any self-represented party that has appeared and has not consented to electronic service) upon the opening of each case or miscellaneous matter that is classified as pro se in the court's records. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 3/18/2024) (kgo) (Entered: 12/22/2025)

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE: Upon consideration of Petitioner's Habeas Petition, it is hereby ORDERED that: 1. To preserve the Courts jurisdiction pending a ruling on the petition, Petitioner shall not be removed from the United States unless and until the Court orders otherwise. 2. Petitioner shall not be transferred except to a facility within this District, the Eastern District of New York, or the District of New Jersey absent further order of this court in light of Petitioner's interests in participating in further proceedings before this Court and maintaining adequate access to legal counsel through these proceedings. 3. Respondents shall show cause, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2243, why the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus should not be granted by December 30, 2025. 4. Petitioner shall have the opportunity to file a reply by January 5, 2026. 5. This matter shall be scheduled for a hearing in front of Judge Gregory H. Woods upon completion of briefing by the parties. 6. The parties shall attend an initial telephonic case conference on Monday, December 23, 2025, at 3:30 p.m. EST. The dial-in number is 1-855-244-8681 and the access code is 2309 3085 835. There is no attendee ID. The parties should be prepared to address venue, under what statutory provision Petitioner is being detained, and provide additional details about Petitioner's detention, such as Petitioner's A-number, and any other accompanying documents. 7. By December 23, 2025, Jonathan Juarez Villa is directed to serve Respondents with a copy of the Habeas Petition and accompanying papers, along with a copy of this Order and promptly file proof of such service on the docket. In the meantime, the Habeas Petition and this Order will be emailed to the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York at the following email addresses: Jeffrey.Oestericher@usdoj.gov; pierre.armand@usdoj.gov; and christine.poscablo@usdoj.gov. 8. If Jonathan Juarez Villa seeks electronic filing privileges, he must fill out the Consent to Electronic Service Form, which is available on the webpage titled Representing Yourself in Federal Court (Pro Se) on the Southern District of New Yorks website, https://nysd.uscourts.gov/prose. SO ORDERED. ( Telephone Conference set for 12/23/2025 at 03:30 PM before Judge Vernon S. Broderick.) Show Cause Response due by 12/30/2025. (Signed by Judge Vernon S.
