ORDER provisionally denying 3 Application for Temporary Restraining Order pending review by the assigned judge. Petitioner asks the Court to order Respondents to release her from detention and to prohibit her transfer outside of this District. Dkt. No. 3 at 21. The Court's scheduling order, Dkt. No. 4, largely moots the latter part of this request, as the order requires Respondents to provide Petitioner "at least 48 hours' notice (or 72 hours' notice if the period extends into a weekend, holiday, or date the Court is closed) prior to any action to move or transfer any Petitioner(s) from the Western District of Washington or to remove them from the United States." Id. at 2. Furthermore, because the former relief "is the same relief ultimately sought by his habeas petition, the Court concludes that it falls outside the limited purpose of a TRO and should instead be decided either after a preliminary injunction hearing or through regular adjudication of the habeas petition itself." Nguyen v. Scott, No. 2:25-CV-01398, 2025 WL 2165995, at *7 (W.D. Wash. July 30, 2025); see also Tang v. Bondi, No. 2:25-CV-01473-RAJ-TLF, 2025 WL 2979938, at *2 (W.D. Wash. Sept. 3, 2025). Should Respondents indicate an intent to imminently transfer Petitioner, Petitioner may move for emergency relief as needed. For the avoidance of doubt, the Court clarifies that Respondents shall not remove or transfer Petitioner without providing the required advance notice and filing such notice on the docket.Signed by Judge Lauren King.
