MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Jennifer A. Dorsey on 9/24/2026. Petitioner moves for discovery in support of his habeas petition, contending that he may not have been given proper notice of his removal proceedings before he was deported to El Salvador. He seeks production of his entire A-file to determine whether notice was properly given. 15 I direct the federal respondents to file a response to that motion by October 1, 2026. Petitioner must file a reply by October 6, 2026.Petitioner also moves to seal an unredacted version of his redacted motion because his personal address is referenced. 16 I find that there are compelling reasons to keep that information sealed, so I GRANT petitioner's sealing motion.
