MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for Magistrate Judge Allison Claire on 10/22/2026. Petitioner, Samuel De Los Santos Jacinto (A# 087-677-569), an immigration detainee proceeding through counsel, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The petition asserts petitioner's prolonged detention violates his federal constitutional rights, including his right to due process, and that his May 19, 2026 and July 4, 2026 custody redetermination hearings were constitutionally inadequate. ECF No. 1. Petitioner further alleges that the medical care he has received throughout his detention violates his Fifth, Eighth, and Fourth Amendment rights to non-punitive conditions of confinement. Id. at 15. Although the habeas petition references eight exhibits (id. at 16), these were not attached to petitioner's filing. Petitioner's counsel is therefore directed to file the missing exhibits within three (3) days of this order. Respondents are directed to file a response to the petition within 7 days from the date of this order (see 28 U.S.C. § 2243), which shall substantively address whether there are any factual or legal issues that materially distinguish this case from Rodriguez Vazquez v. Bostock, 183 F.4th 1160, 1165 (9th Cir. 2026), and the court's prior orders in Quichimbo-Jimenez v. Warden, No. 2:26-cv-0739 DAD EFB, 2026 WL 679378 (E.D. Cal. Mar. 10, 2026), Martinez Vega v. Warden, No. 2:26-cv-1043 DAD SCR, 2026 WL 849857, at *1 (E.D. Cal. Mar. 27, 2026), Roman Rodriguez v. Chestnut, et al., No. 1:26-cv-05532-DAD-CSK, 2026 WL 2168403 (E.D. Cal. July 28, 2026), and other similar cases previously decided by this court, or otherwise indicate that the matter is not substantively distinguishable. The court will construe failure to distinguish the above cited cases as a concession that the cases are not substantively distinguishable. The response shall include petitioner's Form I-213 for each immigration encounter, any orders of release or detention, any custody warrants, notices, or decisions, and if respondents dispute any factual representations in the operative petition, any and all documents necessary to support their view of the facts. Petitioner's reply, if any, is due within 7 days of being served a copy of the respondents' response. Respondents shall NOT TRANSFER petitioner outside of this judicial district, pending further order of the court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a) (establishing the All Writs Act which empowers the federal courts to "issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions...."); see also F.T.C. v. Dean Foods Co., 384 U.S. 597, 604 (1966) (emphasizing that federal courts have the power to "to preserve the court's jurisdiction or maintain the status quo by injunction pending review of an agency's action"). This order does not prohibit the temporary transfer of petitioner outside of the district for urgent medical care, though petitioner shall be returned to the district upon the conclusion of such care. As soon as practicable, respondents shall notify the court of any such transfer. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk JAA) (Entered: 10/22/2026)

MINUTE ORDER issued by Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta on 10/22/2026: This case has been initiated by the same Petitioner who initiated a prior action, Case No. 1:26-cv-03208-DJC-SCR (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 is reassigned to District Judge Daniel J. Calabretta and Magistrate Judge Sean C. Riordan. All future filings shall use the following Case Number: 1:26-cv-08674-DJC-SCR (HC). (cc: DAD, SCR) [TEXT ONLY ENTRY] (Deputy Clerk GJM) (Entered: 10/22/2026)
