ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND ENJOINING TRANSFER by District Judge Margaret I. Strickland: The USAO shall ANSWER the Petition and show cause why relief should not be granted within 10 business days, unless the Court sets a separate deadline/hearing to address emergency relief. The USAO's answer MUST specify whether the Court has already ruled on the legal issue(s) in this case and whether the holding in Santillan Quiroz v. Mullin, 180 F.4th 1226 (10th Cir. 2026) requires relief. In addition, to the extent the USAO's answer opposes the Petitioner because Petitioner has had a bond hearing, it must provide specific information to show that the bond hearing was constitutionally adequate. Petitioner's Emergency Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (ECF 3 ) is GRANTED as follows. The Government is prohibited from transferring or removing Petitioner from the District of New Mexico while this case remains pending, absent a final order of removal. Finally, the Clerk's Office shall confirm the docket lists the following Respondents: the facility Warden; Acting ICE Director, Acting ICE Field Director; Acting U.S. Attorney General; and Secretary Markwayne Mullin.[THIS IS A TEXT-ONLY ENTRY. THERE ARE NO DOCUMENTS ATTACHED.] (pa) (Entered: 11/05/2026)
