Oct 23, 2026
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND ORDER re: 1 and 4, GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART. Within 3 days, the United States Attorney, as attorney for respondents, is ORDERED to SHOW CAUSE why a writ of habeas corpus should not be issued by filing a return to the petition. Respondents are further ORDERED, to the extent within their authority, to preserve any documentation that tends to confirm that petitioner's absence at his 10/19/2026 asylum interview resulted from federal detention rather than a voluntary failure to appear and to timely transmit that documentation to petitioner. Pending resolution of the petition, respondents are enjoined from relocating the petitioner from this District. Petitioner's other requests are denied pending resolution of this petition. The Clerk of Court shall effectuate electronic service of a copy of this Order to Show Cause and a copy of the petition to the United States Attorney. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 10/23/2026.
