MINUTE ORDER (Text Entry Only) The Court has reviewed the Petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (Doc. 1) and the related request for emergency injunctive relief (Doc. 2). Petitioner (A File #: 205-434-524) asserts that he has been detained for 270 days (Doc. 2 at 1). She does not explain her delay in seeking her request for a temporary restraining order or why despite this delay, the Court should treat the situation as an emergency. Thus, the TRO request is untimely, and it is DENIED. Local Rule 231(b). The Court refers the matter to the assigned magistrate judge for a determination on the merits. The Court sets the following briefing schedule, which may be modified by the magistrate judge as needed. Respondents SHALL file their responsive pleading within 21 days. The response SHALL provide the Court with copies of referenced/relevant portions of Petitioner's A-File (including the I-213) and other supporting documents, including available documentation related to any asserted violations of release conditions. Petitioner may file a traverse no later than 7 days after the respondents file their brief.In the meantime, unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Court ORDERS that Respondents shall not remove Petitioner from the United States nor transfer Petitioner out of this District. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting the court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction"). Given the exigent circumstances, the Court finds that this order is warranted to maintain the status quo pending the hearing, to preserve the Court's jurisdiction and to preserve Petitioner's access to the Court and any subsequent order and finds that Petitioner has satisfied the factors governing the issuance of such preliminary relief signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston on September 15, 2026. (Deputy Clerk IM) (Entered: 09/15/2026)

MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 10/06/2026: (Text Only Entry). Examination of this action reveals that it is related to Chavez v. Becerra, 1:25-cv-02058-KES-SAB, within the meaning of Local Rule 123(a). See Local Rule 123(a)(1), (2). Accordingly, the assignment of this matter to the same judge and magistrate judge as in Chavez v. Becerra, 1:25-cv-02058-KES-SAB, is likely to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort and is likely to be convenient for the parties. It is hereby ORDERED that 1:26-cv-07474-JLT-HBK is reassigned from District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston and Magistrate Judge Helena M. Barch-Kuchta to District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff and Magistrate Judge Stanley A. Boone. The caption on documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as 1:26-cv-07474-KES-SAB. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings, including the preparation of findings and recommendations on the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus.
