ORDER. Because both motions bear the incorrect petitioner's name, the Court takes these filings to be the product of a clerical error. Accordingly, both motions (Dkt. Nos. 9 ; 10 ) are denied without prejudice. The petitioner's habeas petition (Dkt. No. 1 ) remains pending. (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 6/12/2026) (ada) (Entered: 06/12/2026)

ORDER. Barreto Gonzalez's arguments in the petition are the same as the arguments raised in the cases above. The Court previously found these arguments unavailing. The Court has considered them anew in this petition and concludes that habeas relief is unwarranted. Because Barreto Gonzalez is not entitled to relief, the Court denies the petition. Dkt. No. 1 . Barreto Gonzalez's Notice of Voluntary Dismissal pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1) (Dkt. No. 12 ) is denied as moot. (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 8/10/2026) (ada) (Entered: 08/10/2026)
