ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND ENJOINING TRANSFER by District Judge Sarah M. Davenport: The USAO shall ANSWER the Petition and show cause why relief should not be granted by November 6, 2026, unless the Court sets a separate deadline/hearing to address emergency relief. The USAO's answer MUST specify 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.
