MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 07/17/2026. Petitioner, a self-represented immigration detainee, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Based on the length of time in which petitioner has been in immigration detention, the court hereby authorizes petitioner to proceed in forma pauperis without prepayment of the filing fee in this action. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914. Respondents are directed to respond to the petition within 7 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), 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. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk JAA) (Entered: 07/17/2026)
