MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Petitioner Gilbert Jose Miranda Cruz's Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, ECF No. 1, and Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction, ECF No. 2, in which Petitioner requests immediate release from immigration detention or, in the alternative, that the Court order Respondents to provide Petitioner with an individualized bond hearing, ECF No. 1 at 10; ECF No. 2 at 6. Having reviewed the petition, the Court will order the Clerk of Court to effectuate service on Respondents. Within five (5) calendar days of service, Respondents are ORDERED TO RESPOND to the Petition and are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE as to why the Petition should not be granted. See, e.g., Yassine v. Collins, No. 1:25-cv-00786-ADA-SH, 2025 WL 1954064, at *1 (W.D. Tex. July 7, 2025) (explaining that while § 2243 refers to a three day deadline, this requirement is "subordinate to the district court's authority to set deadlines" itself, and granting respondents a fourteen day deadline to respond in order to "give [r]espondents adequate time to brief the issues" (quotations omitted)). Further, pursuant to the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), and in order to preserve the Court's jurisdiction, Respondents SHALL NOT REMOVE Petitioner from the District of Colorado or the United States unless or until this Court or the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit vacates this Order. See also Vizguerra-Ramirez v. Choate, et. al, Case No. 1:25-cv-881, D. Colo., ECF No. 11 at 45 (collecting cases); F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 603 (1966); Local 1814, Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n v. New York Shipping Ass'n, 965 F.2d 1224, 1237 (2d Cir. 1992). By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 10/09/26.
