MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Richard F. Boulware, II on 10/29/2026. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Court joins Petitioner's immediate custodian as a necessary party to this case. Federal courts may add necessary parties to a proceeding sua sponte. See CP Nat. Corp. v. Bonneville Power Admin, 928 F.2d 905, 911 (9th Cir. 1991); Est. of Mendez v. City of Ceres, 390 F. Supp. 3d 1189, 1200 (E.D. Cal. 2019) (same). Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 19(a), the Court "must order that [a] person be made a party" if it "cannot accord complete relief among existing parties." Fed. R. Civ. P. 19(a); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 81 (clarifying that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure generally govern habeas corpus proceedings). It is well-settled that the proper respondent in habeas challenges to present physical confinement is "the warden of the facility where the [Petitioner] is being held"; after all, the warden serves as the Petitioner's "immediate custodian." Doe v. Garland, 109 F.4th 1188, 1195 (9th Cir. 2024) (citations omitted). Since the Warden of the Henderson Detention Center is "the person with the ability to produce [Petitioner]" before this Court, the Court concludes that they are a necessary party to this habeas proceeding, as they are ultimately responsible for effectuating Petitioner's release from unlawful confinement. See Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 43536 (2004) (citations and quotation marks omitted) (emphasis added). Therefore, IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED Reggie Radar is JOINED to this case as a necessary party. The Clerk's Office is directed to send through CM/ECF Assistant City Attorney Christian Orme a courtesy copy of this minute order at christian.orme@cityofhenderson.com.
