(In Chambers) Order by Judge Stanley Blumenfeld, Jr.: Petitioner filed a combined habeas corpus petition and emergency request for a temporary restraining order (TRO). Dkt. No. 1. The TRO application--which is not supported by any evidence other than Petitioner's unverified allegations--fails to comply with the notice requirements in Fed. R. Civ. P. 65 and the local rules or to address the preliminary relief factors in Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7 (2008). The request for emergency relief is therefore denied without prejudice to Petitioner refiling a compliant ex parte application for a TRO if he believes it is necessary despite the expedited briefing schedule. With respect to the habeas petition, the Court orders Respondents to file a notice of appearance by April 3, 2026 and SETS the following briefing schedule: Respondents shall respond to the habeas petition by April 7; Petitioner shall file a reply by April 10. The parties are encouraged to consider consenting to the jurisdiction of the assigned Magistrate Judge, which will expedite determination of the petition by avoiding the delay associated with the preparation and review of a report and recommendation. If the parties consent to proceed before the Magistrate Judge for all purposes, they shall file statements of consent by April 7. Declining consent will not result in any adverse substantive consequences. Respondents shall provide Petitioner and Petitioner's counsel in this habeas action at least 48 hours' notice prior to any action to move or transfer any Petitioner from this district or to remove him from the United States.
