MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 06/22/2026. Petitioner, a self-represented immigration detainee, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, along with a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. ECF Nos. 1, 2 . Petitioner's motion to proceed in forma pauperis 2 is GRANTED and petitioner is authorized to proceed in forma pauperis without prepayment of the filing fee in this action. The petition, liberally construed, asserts two violations of petitioner's due process rights: one based on prolonged detention and another based on revocation of his release. Respondents are directed to respond to the petition within 14 days from the date of this order. Respondents shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues that materially distinguish this case from Pham v. Warden, No. 1:25-cv-01873-DC-AC (HC), 2026 WL 849861 (ED CA March 27, 2026); Osorto-Coello v. Warden of California City Detention Facility, No. 1:26-cv-3231 DC AC, 2026 WL 1470603 (E.D. CA May 26, 2026) and other similar cases previously decided by this court. Any response must include petitioner's Form I-213 for each immigration encounter, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants or notices, and, if respondents dispute any factual representations in the operative petition, any and all documents necessary to support their view of the facts. Petitioner's reply, if any, is due within 7 days after being served a copy of respondent's response. Respondents 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").

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 09/02/2026. In light of petitioner's response to this court's 10 order to show cause and the filing of 11 an amended petition, the Order to Show Cause 10 is DISCHARGED. The court has reviewed the amended petition, which asserts that the revocation of petitioner's release, his prolonged detention without a bond hearing, and the lack of a significant likelihood of his removal in the reasonably foreseeable future violate his due process rights under the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause and 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(6). ECF No. 11 at 8-12. This court has previously addressed these issues in Pham v. Warden, No. 1:25-cv-01873-DC-AC (HC), 2026 WL 849861 (ED CA March 27, 2026), J.R.M.J. v. Wofford, No. 1:25-cv-1567 DC SCR, 2026 WL 1948264 (E.D. Cal. July 6, 2026), and Huang v. Albarran, 818 F. Supp. 3d 1154 (E.D. Cal. 2026). Because petitioner may be entitled to relief, respondent is directed to respond to the petition within 7 days from the date of this order, see 28 U.S.C. § 2243, which shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues that materially distinguish this case from Pham, J.R.M.J., Huang, and other similar cases previously decided by this court. The court will construe failure to distinguish the above cited cases as a concession that the cases are not substantively distinguishable. Any response must include any and all documents necessary to support their view of the facts. Petitioner's reply, if any, is due within 7 days after being served a copy of respondent's response.
