MINUTE ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Jeremy D. Peterson on 9/30/2026: Petitioner, an immigration detainee, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Under Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, the court must examine the habeas corpus petition and order a response to the petition unless it "plainly appears" that the petitioner is not entitled to relief. It does not plainly appear that petitioner is not entitled to relief. Therefore, the court orders the government to respond to the petition and sets a briefing schedule. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that: 1. Within seven days of this order's service, respondent must file an answer to the petition. The answer must address the merits of the petition and set forth the "true cause of the detention." See 28 U.S.C. § 2243. Any argument by respondent that petitioner has procedurally defaulted a claim must be raised in the answer, which must also address the merits of petitioner's claims. Respondent shall attach any documents necessary for resolving the issues presented in the petition. Arguments that are not supported with relevant evidence will not be considered. 2. Petitioner may file a traverse to respondent's answer within seven days of the date of service of that answer. If no traverse is filed within seven days, the petition and answer are deemed submitted. 3. If respondent learns of petitioner's removal or any other change in petitioner's detention status, respondent shall submit a status report notifying the court as soon as practicably possible. 4. The Clerk of Court is directed to send petitioner a copy of the in forma pauperis form used by this district. Petitioner shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, an affidavit in support of a request to proceed in forma pauperis or the appropriate filing fee of $5.00. (Text Only Entry).

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 10/1/2026: This case has been initiated by the same Petitioner who initiated a prior action, Case No. 1:26-cv-07761-DJC-CKD (HC), related to Petitioner's present immigration custody status. Pursuant to Local Rule 123, the Court finds that this action is related to the prior action because both cases involve overlapping parties, properties, claims, events and/or questions of fact or law. Accordingly, assignment of the actions to the same District Judge and Magistrate Judge who were assigned to the consolidated action will promote convenience, efficiency, and economy for the Court and parties. Thus, the Court ORDERS that this case be reassigned to District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta and Chief Magistrate Judge Carolyn K. Delaney. All future filings shall use the following Case Number: 1:26-cv-08013-DJC-CKD (HC). (cc: TLN, JDP) [TEXT ONLY ENTRY] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 10/01/2026)

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 10/1/2026: In light of the order dismissing Case No. 1:26-cv-07761-DJC-CKD (HC), the Court DENIES Respondents' request to dismiss this case as duplicative. (ECF No. 6 .) On review the issues raised in the Petition in this case (ECF No. 1 ) appear to mirror those previously addressed by the Court in many prior cases. Specifically, it appears that Petitioner's prior release from custody created a liberty interest that entitles Petitioner to pre-deprivation notice and opportunity to be heard. See Garcia Mariagua v. Chestnut, No. 1:25-cv-01744-DJC-CSK; Ortega v. Noem, No. 1:25-cv-01663-DJC-CKD; Lopez v. Lyons, No. 2:25-cv-03174-DJC-CKD; see also M.B. v. Noem, 1:26-cv-00005-DJC-AC; Oli v. Andrews, No. 1:26-cv-00477-DJC-AC. Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or before October 6, 2026, as to why the Court should not grant a writ of habeas corpus and order Petitioner's release based on the violation of Petitioner's due process rights by filing a return as provided in 28 U.S.C. § 2243. This matter is not set for a hearing though the Court may set one should it later be determined that a hearing is necessary. [TEXT ONLY ENTRY] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 10/01/2026)
