ORDER: To preserve the Court's jurisdiction pending a ruling in this matter, Petitioner shall not be removed from the United States unless and until the Court orders otherwise. See, e.g., Loc. 1814, Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n, AFL-CIO v. New York Shipping Ass'n, Inc., 965 F.2d 1224, 1237 (2d Cir. 1992) ("Once the district court acquires jurisdiction over the subject matter of, and the parties to, the litigation, the All Writs Act [28 U.S.C. § 1651] authorizes a federal court to protect that jurisdiction." (quotations omitted)); Garcia-Izquierdo v. Gartner, No. 04-CV-7377, 2004 WL 2093515, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Sep. 17, 2004) (observing that, under the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651, a district court "may order that a petitioner's deportation be stayed when a stay is necessary to preserve the Court's jurisdiction of the case"); Khalil v. Joyce, 771 F. Supp. 3d 268, 274 (S.D.N.Y. 2025) (barring the government from removing petitioner from the United States until the Court could address his claim); cf. Michael v. I.N.S., 48 F.3d 657, 661-62 (2d Cir. 1995) (holding that the All Writs Act provides a federal court of appeals reviewing a final removal order with a basis to stay removal). And in addition, in light of Petitioner's interests in participating in further proceedings before this Court and in maintaining adequate access to legal counsel through these proceedings, it is further ORDERED that Petitioner shall not be transferred except to a facility within this District, the Eastern District of New York, or the Southern District of New York, absent further order of this Court. See Ozturk v. Trump, 779 F. Supp. 3d 462, 496 (D. Vt. 2025) (ordering petitioner's transfer from Louisiana to Vermont due, in part, to her pending habeas petition), stay and mandamus denied, Ozturk v. Hyde, 136 F.4th 382, 403 (2d Cir. 2025). Respondents must inform the Court of Petitioner's current location, and must include information about any other locations where Petitioner has been held and the dates of any transfers since his initial detention, by July 17, 2026 at 5:00 P.M. Respondents must also file a response to the writ—including any legal or factual arguments why the writ should not be granted—by July 17, 2026 at 5:00 P.M. If Respondents believe this case is unique, and raises issues separate and apart from those raised in similar petitions, e.g., Rodriguez-Acurio v. Almodovar, -- F. Supp. 3d --, No. 25-CV-6065, 2025 WL 3314420, at *23 (E.D.N.Y. Nov. 28, 2025), and as a result require additional time to provide some or all of the information requested, in lieu of responding at 5:00 P.M., they may file a request for additional time with a short explanation for why this case raises unique issues not previously decided. So Ordered by Judge Sanket J. Bulsara on 7/16/2026. (LMR)
