SCHEDULING NOTICE TEXT ONLY ENTRY (In Chambers) by Magistrate Judge Brianna Fuller Mircheff. The Petition in this case indicates that venue is proper in the Southern District of California because Petitioner is detained in the Imperial Regional Detention Facility (Pet. at 1, 3); it was filed, however, in the Central District of California. The Petition also references an order of this Court that this Court did not enter. (Pet. at 2.) It is unclear if Petitioner meant to file this Petition in another District, or if Petitioner's counsel has, perhaps, stated allegations that mixes the facts of one petitioner with another. Moreover, as this Court already ordered the relief "Azurin Roman Ocampo" seeks in claim one, it is unclear what more the Petitioner is asking this Court to do, or whether he is seeking to enforce the judgment entered in the previous case. Petitioner is therefore ordered to show cause in writing why the Petition should not be transferred and/or dismissed, and if it intends to proceed in this District, facts concerning Respondents' compliance with the Court's prior order. Petitioner's response to the OSC should be filed NO LATER THAN APRIL 17, 2026. The GO 26-05 scheduling order is STAYED until further order of this Court, except that Respondents shall promptly enter a notice of appearance, which is already overdue. THERE IS NO PDF DOCUMENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ENTRY. (ch) TEXT ONLY ENTRY (Entered: 04/14/2026)
