ORDER BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE CHRISTINA T. SHAY: On September 22, 2026, Respondents filed a Notice of Intended Removal indicating that Petitioner had agreed to depart the United States voluntarily and requesting that the Court dismiss the Petition. (ECF No. 11.) However, as of October 14, 2026, the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") Online Detainee Locator System shows that Petitioner remains in ICE custody in Adelanto, California. Respondents are therefore ORDERED to file, within seven days of this order, either a status report regarding Petitioner's custody status and anticipated removal date or, if appropriate, notice that Petitioner has been removed to China and a suggestion of mootness. It is so ordered. THERE IS NO PDF DOCUMENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ENTRY. (bem) TEXT ONLY ENTRY (Entered: 10/14/2026)
