MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 07/30/2026. Petitioner, Ricardo Antonio Brocuero Carreno (A# 217-758-122), a self-represented immigration detainee, filed a 1 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. The petition, liberally construed, asserts violations of petitioner's due process rights based on his prolonged detention and the revocation of his release. Respondents are directed to file a response within 7 days from the date of this order, which shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues that materially distinguish it from the court's prior orders in Lida G.B. v. Albarran, No. 1:25-cv-2061 TLN CKD, 2026 WL 19104 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 3. 2026), Z.Z. v. Chestnut, No. 1:26-cv-2309 TLN JDP, 2026 WL 890476 (E.D. Cal. Apr. 1, 2026), Mohammad S. v. Andrews, No. 1:26-cv-0590 TLN CSK, 2026 WL 480095 (E.D. Cal. Feb. 20, 2026), and other similar cases previously decided by this court, or otherwise indicate that the matter is not substantively distinguishable. The court will construe failure to distinguish the above cited cases as a concession that the cases are not substantively distinguishable. The response shall include petitioner's Form I-213 for each immigration encounter, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants, notices, or decisions, 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 of being served a copy of the respondents' response. (Text Only Entry). (Deputy Clerk JAA) (Entered: 07/30/2026)
