ORDER. Thus, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2243, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE in writing no later than 5:00 p.m. on November 3, 2025 why the Court should not grant the requested preliminary injunction. Petitioner may file a reply no later than 5:00 p.m. on November 5, 2025. If Respondents have no new arguments to offer that have not already been addressed by the Court, they may so indicate by reference to their previous briefing, while reserving appellate rights. Respondents should file the referenced briefing as an attachment for Petitioner's counsel's review. In the meantime, unless and until the Court orders otherwise, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents shall not transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v.
