EO:The court has received and reviewed Petitioner's petition for writ of habeas corpus, Dkt. No. 1, and motion for temporary restraining order, Dkt. No. 4 . The court intends to rule directly on the petition. It is not clear from the face of the petition, however, whether Petitioner is entitled to relief.Accordingly, under Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases -- which the court applies to this Section 2241 habeas petition, as authorized by Rule 1(b) -- the court orders the following: 1. Within seven days of the date of service of this order, Respondent SHALL FILE A RESPONSE to the petition. SeeRule 4, Rules Governing Section 2255 Cases.A response can be made by filing (a) AN ANSWER addressing the merits of the petition.Any argument by Respondent that Petitioner has procedurally defaulted a claim SHALL BE MADE in the ANSWER but must also address the merits of the claim asserted. Alternatively, a response can be made by filing (b) A MOTION TO DISMISS the petition. 2. Within seven days after service of this order, Respondent also SHALL FILE any and all transcripts or other documents necessary for the resolution of the issues presented in the petition. See Rule 5(c), Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases.The transcripts or other documents shall only be filed electronically and, to the extent practicable, provided in Optical Character Recognition ("OCR") format.Such documents include, for example, Petitioner's full Form I-213, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants or notices, any other portions of Petitioner's A-File relevant to the determination of the issues presented in the Petition, and Petitioner's criminal record to the extent one exists. Respondent shall not file a hard copy of the transcripts or other documents unless so ordered by this court. 3. If Respondent files an answer to the petition, Petitioner MAY FILE a traverse within seven days of the service of Respondent's answer.If no traverse is filed, the petition and answer are deemed submitted at the expiration of the seven days. 4. If Respondent files a motion to dismiss, Petitioner SHALL FILE an opposition or statement of non-opposition within seven days of the date of service of Respondent's motion. Any reply to an opposition to the motion to dismiss SHALL be filed within seven days after the opposition has been filed in CM/ECF.The motion to dismiss will be deemed submitted when the time to reply has expired. 5. Any motion shall be submitted on the record and briefs filed without oral argument unless otherwise ordered by the court. These dates should be considered as firm by all parties.If any party requires additional time, that party should file a motion for amendment of the schedule before a deadline has passed and explain in detail why the party cannot comply with this schedule. Extensions of time will only be granted upon a showing of good cause.All provisions of Local Rule 110 are applicable to this order. 6. Pending the court's decision on the petition, and unless and until the court orders otherwise, the court ORDERS that Respondent shall not transfer or otherwise take petitioner out of the Eastern District of California. See F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (noting court's "express authority under the All Writs Act to issue such temporary injunctions as may be necessary to protect its own jurisdiction"). 7. Considering the briefing schedule and status quo order set forth above, Petitioner's motion for temporary restraining order, Dkt. No. 4, is DENIED without prejudice. 8. For good cause shown, Petitioner's application to proceed in forma pauperis, Dkt. No. 2, is GRANTED. IT IS SO ORDERED. (JUDGE MICAH W. J. SMITH) (ab) Modified on 9/24/2026 (AB). (Entered: 09/24/2026)
