MINUTE ORDER by Magistrate Judge Susan Prose on 07/27/2026. This matter is before the court on Petitioner Hamza Souleiman Habib's "Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (ECF No. 1 ). The Clerk of Court shall serve Respondents and within seven days of service, respondents shall show cause why the 1 Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 should not be granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The writ, or order to show cause shall be directed to the person having custody of the person detained. It shall be returned within three days unless for good cause additional time, not exceeding twenty days, is allowed."). In doing so, Respondents are asked to address whether the issues presented here are materially different from the issues the Tenth Circuit has resolved in its prior ruling in Santillan Quiroz v. Mullin, No. 26-6019, __ F.4th__ (10th Cir. 2026). Petitioner may file a reply within seven days of Respondents filing their response. In addition, the Supreme Court has recognized that the express authority granted by the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651, empowers lower courts, in limited circumstances, to issue temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect the status quo or their own jurisdiction. See FTC v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 603, 608 (1966). "Unless appropriately confined by Congress, a federal court may avail itself of all auxiliary writs as aids in the performance of its duties, when the use of such historic aids is calculated in its sound judgment to achieve the ends of justice entrusted to it." United States v. N.Y. Tel. Co., 434 U.S. 159, 17273 (1977) (quotation omitted). Pursuant to the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), and in order to preserve the court's jurisdiction, Respondents SHALL NOT REMOVE Petitioner from the District of Colorado into the jurisdiction of any other federal district court within the United States unless or until this court or the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit vacates this Order. See Vizguerra-Ramirez v. Choate, No. 25-cv-00881-NYW, ECF No. 11 at 45 (D. Colo. Mar. 21, 2025) (collecting cases); Vazquez v. Baltazar, No. 25-cv-03049-GPG-TPO, ECF No. 11 (D. Colo. Oct. 2, 2025); Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. at 603; Local 1814, Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n v. N.Y. Shipping Ass'n, 965 F.2d 1224, 1237 (2d Cir. 1992).It is further ORDERED that the parties shall file a completed Magistrate Judge consent form (ECF No. 4 ) no less than seven days from the date of this Order. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry (sjeff) (Entered: 07/28/2026)
