MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 05/26/2026. Petitioner, a self-represented immigration detainee, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Petitioner has paid the filing fee. However, in light of the complexity of the legal issues involved and in the interest of justice, the court appoints counsel to represent petition and the Federal Defender is directed to identify counsel to represent petitioner. The Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this order on the Federal Defender, Attention: Habeas Appointment. Within 14 days of this order, the appointing authority for the Eastern District of California shall identify counsel and send counsel's contact information to the undersigned's courtroom deputy Jonathan Anderson at janderson@caed.uscourts.gov, and counsel will be added as counsel for petitioner. If counsel is not a member of the Eastern District of California Criminal Justice Act ("CJA") Panel, the Court hereby authorizes them to serve as CJA counsel for petitioner for the duration of the proceedings in this Court pursuant to Local Rule 180(b)(1). Within 7 days of adding counsel for petitioner, petitioner's counsel may file an amended or supplemental petition, if any. Respondent shall NOT TRANSFER petitioner outside of this judicial district, pending further order of the court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a) (establishing the All Writs Act which empowers the federal courts to "issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions...."); see also F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (emphasizing that federal courts have the power to "to preserve the court's jurisdiction or maintain the status quo by injunction pending review of an agency's action").
