Minute Order by Judge Jinsook Ohta: Petitioner filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus on October 26, 2026. See Dkt. 1. Petitioner is currently detained at the Otero County Processing Center in Chaparral, New Mexico. Id. Petitioner challenges the legality of his detention and alleges that the government, in transferring Petitioner to New Mexico before his scheduled bond hearing, violated his due process rights and his right to counsel. Id. "The plain language of the habeas statute [ ] confirms the general rule that for core habeas petitions challenging present physical confinement, jurisdiction lies in only one district: the district of confinement." Rumsfeld v. Padilla, 542 U.S. 426, 443 (2004). Because Petitioner was confined in the District of New Mexico when he filed the petition, this Court lacks jurisdiction over his habeas claim. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, the Court TRANSFERS Petitioner's petition for habeas relief to the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631. The Clerk of the Court is directed to transfer this Petition to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico and close this case. Signed by Judge Jinsook Ohta on 10/26/2026.
