TEXT ORDER : This matter is before the Court on the Petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. (D.E. No. 1 ("Petition" or "Pet.")). Chief Judge Renee Marie Bumb entered a Text Order enjoining Respondents from transferring Petitioner from New Jersey pending further Order of the Court. (D.E. No. 2 ). Pursuant to the All Writs Act, see 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), Respondents SHALL NOT TRANSFER Petitioner from the District of New Jersey, and SHALL NOT REMOVE Petitioner from the United States, pending further order of this Court. Petitioner alleges that he "has been in the country since 1999" and that "Petitioner's detention should not be governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A) but rather 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) [and] as such, his current detention is unlawful." (Pet. at 6). Petitioner is currently detained at the Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey. (Id. at 1). The Petition is silent regarding whether Petitioner has any criminal history. Accordingly, within twenty-four (24) hours of the issuance of this Text Order, Petitioner shall assert under oath whether he has any criminal history. The Court will take appropriate further action upon receipt of Petitioner's certification. The Clerk of Court shall forward a copy of the Petition, (D.E. No. 1 ), the attachment to the Petition, (D.E. No. 1 -1), and this Text Order to the Chief, Civil Division, United States Attorney's Office, at the following email address: USANJ-HabeasCases@usdoj.gov. So Ordered by Judge Esther Salas on 7/27/2026. (ek) (Entered: 07/27/2026)
