TEXT ORDER: Before the Court is the Petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, filed by his next friend, Samuel Chamale Suruy. Assuming Mr. Suruy qualifies as a next friend, he does not appear to be an attorney. See ECF 1 at 2, 12. Therefore, he cannot litigate this case on the Petitioner's behalf. See, e.g., Banks as next friend of Waymer v. Eddy, 801 F. App'x 50, 51 (3d Cir. 2020) ("A non-attorney cannot represent another party, even if acting as a next friend."); Schlemmer v. Cent. Intelligence Agency, 804 F. App'x 127, 128 n.2 (3d Cir. 2020) (citing cases); Berrios v. N.Y.C. Hous. Auth., 564 F.3d 130, 134 (2d Cir. 2009) (holding that if the "next friend... is not himself an attorney, he must be represented by an attorney in order to conduct the litigation"). If he wishes to proceed as next friend, Mr. Suruy shall have until November 9 at noon to retain an attorney or file a motion for pro bono counsel. Alternatively, if the Petitioner wishes to proceed pro se, and prosecute this case himself, he must personally review, sign, and submit a copy of the Petition on or before November 9 at noon. The Clerk of the Court shall mail a copy of this Order, and a copy of the motion for pro bono counsel form (DNJ-ProSe-002-04-(04/19), to Mr. Suruy and the Petitioner by regular mail. So Ordered by Judge Michael E. Farbiarz on 10/30/26. (ro, ) (Entered: 10/30/2026)

TEXT ORDER: In an earlier Order, the Court advised the Petitioner's next friend, Mr. Suruy, that he could only litigate with an attorney and provided him with the motion for pro bono counsel form. Mr. Suruy did not use the form, and his motion for pro bono counsel does not otherwise address the appointment factors listed in Tabron v. Grace, 6 F.3d 147,155-57 (3d Cir. 1993). See ECF 3, at 4-5. Accordingly, the motion for pro bono counsel at ECF 3 is denied without prejudice, and the remainder of the requests for relief at ECF 3, 4, is denied as improperly filed without an attorney. The Clerk of the Court shall administratively terminate this case. Should Mr. Suruy or the Petitioner wish to reinitiate this case, they may do so by completing one of the options set out in the Court's prior Order, ECF 2, within 10 days. If they fail to do so, the Court will dismiss this matter for lack of prosecution. The Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this Order on the Petitioner at his last known address by regular mail. SO Ordered by Judge Michael E. Farbiarz on 11/3/2026. (ro, ) (Entered: 11/03/2026)
