MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Sheila K. Oberto on 4/2/2026: (Text Only Entry). The Court has reviewed petitioner's 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus. The Court has addressed the legal issues raised by the 1 petition on previous occasions. See e.g., J.S.H.M. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-CV-01309-JLT-SKO (HC) (E.D. Cal. Oct. 16, 2025); Ortiz Donis v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-CV-01228-JLT-SAB (HC), 2025 WL 32879514 (E.D. Cal. Oct. 9, 2025); M.R.R. v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-CV-01517-JLT (HC), 2025 WL 3265446 (E.D. Cal. Nov. 24, 2025). On or before April 10, 2026, respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to whether there are any factual or legal issues in this case that render it distinguishable from the Court's prior orders in J.S.H.M. v. Wofford, Ortiz Donis v. Chestnut, and M.M.R. v. Chestnut and justify denying the petition, or indicate the matter is not substantively distinguishable. Pending the Court's decision, and unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that respondents shall not transfer petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction"). The Clerk of Court is directed to serve a copy of the petition, via email, on the U.S. Attorney's Office at usacae.ecf2241-imm@usdoj.gov. (Deputy Clerk WAK) (Entered: 04/02/2026)

MINUTE ORDER (Text Only Entry) On October 3, 2026, Respondents filed a request for this Court to lift its no-transfer order issued on April 2, 2026, to permit ERO to effectuate Petitioner's removal to Jamaica. (Doc. 19.) According to the attached order, the BIA dismissed Petitioner's appeal of his order of removal on September 14, 2026. (Doc. 19-1 at 2-4.) As such, Respondents argue that Petitioner's order of removal is final and that he is subject to mandatory detention during a 90-day removal period. (Doc. 19 at 1.) However, pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1), Petitioner has until October 14, 2026, to appeal that dismissal to the Ninth Circuit. Accordingly, to allow the Court to properly evaluate the applicable detention authority in this matter, no later than October 15, 2026, the parties SHALL file a notice indicating whether an appeal to the Ninth Circuit has been filed signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on October 6, 2026. (Deputy Clerk IM) (Entered: 10/06/2026)
