ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE by District Judge Sarah M. Davenport: The Court has reviewed the Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO") 4 . The Court intends to rule directly on the Petition, with the understanding that the Court will also consider any arguments and exhibits advanced in support of the Motion for TRO. See 28 U.S.C. § 2243 ("The court shall summarily hear and determine the facts, and dispose of [the habeas petition] as law and justice require."). In light of the Petitioner's representations in the Motion for TRO, the Court will expedite the prior briefing schedule (Doc. 3). Accordingly, Respondents are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE no later than October 27, 2026, as to whether the Court has already ruled on the legal issue(s) in this case, if so whether the facts in this case are distinguishable, and whether the holding in Santillan Quiroz v. Mullin, 180 F.4th 1226 (10th Cir. 2026), requires relief. In particular, Respondents must set forth the following: 1) whether Petitioner was encountered and detained at a port of entry or within the United States; 2) if within the country, the date of Petitioner's original entry and whether he was released on parole or supervision; 3) whether Petitioner has a final order of removal and, if so, the date it became final; 4) whether Respondents are attempting to remove Petitioner to a third country and, if so, they have provided him with constitutionally compliant procedures; and 5) whether Petitioner has any criminal history or has violated any terms of release.
