MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Noel Wise on October 28, 2026: This case has been initiated by the same Petitioner who filed another habeas case related to his present immigration detention (Case No. 1:26-cv-08383-TLN-AC). Pursuant to Local Rule 123, the Court finds that this action is related to the prior action because both cases involve overlapping parties, claims, events and/or questions of fact or law. Accordingly, assignment of the actions to the same District Judge and Magistrate Judge will promote convenience, efficiency, and economy for the Court and parties. Thus, the Court ORDERS that case 1:26-cv-08383 be reassigned to District Judge Noel Wise. (TEXT ONLY ENTRY) (Deputy Clerk MDK) (Entered: 10/28/2026)
