MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 6/23/2026: The court has reviewed Petitioner's 2 Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order, specifically directing Respondents not to transfer Petitioner out of the Eastern District of California. The court DENIES Petitioner's 2 Motion because there is no basis for the relief sought; this court retains jurisdiction over Petitioner's Habeas Petition notwithstanding his transfer to a detention facility outside of this district. See Garcia-Ayala v. Andrews, No. 2:25-cv-02070-DJC-JDP, 2025 WL 2578167, at *3 (E.D. Cal. Sept. 5, 2025) (explaining that "the Court does not lose jurisdiction over [Petitioner's] pending habeas petition if Petitioner is transferred to another jurisdiction").
