ORDER. Because the preliminary relief sought in the motion improperly seeks the same ultimate relief requested in the petition, the motion is denied. Petitioner's petition remains pending, and the Court will enter a separate order requiring the respondent to file an answer and setting a briefing schedule. The Clerk is directed to change the caption to reflect that the Warden of the Eden Detention Center is the only proper respondent. All other named respondents will be terminated from this civil action. (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 10/22/2026) (kmr) (Entered: 10/22/2026)
