Filing 7
DOCKET TEXT ORDER. Petitioner seeks a stay barring the Government from transferring him to any location more than 90 minutes from the Utah immigration court pending disposition of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. 2241. But counsel for Petitioner was unable to confirm through the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcements Online Detainee Locator System that Petitioner was still detained in Utah at the time he filed this action early on August 14, 2026, see Dkt. No. 1 at 5 n.2, and, as of August 15, 2026, that system indicates that Petitioner is detained in California. Even assuming that the Petitioner was detained in the District of Utah when this action was filed and that the court thus has jurisdiction to consider his petition, the request for a stay barring Petitioner's transfer has now been overtaken by events and may well be moot. In passing, Petitioner also requests a stay barring his removal pending resolution of his habeas petition. But he fails to argue, let alone demonstrate, that such a stay will prevent irreparable harm that he would likely suffer absent such relief. See Nken v. Holder, 556 U.S., 418, 434 (2009). Indeed, in his petition he neither contends that his removal from the United States would be unlawful nor seeks a court order barring his removal. And it is far from clear that the court would have jurisdiction to consider such an argument or to grant such relief in all events. See 8 U.S.C. 1252(g) and 1252(b)(9). Rather, Petitioner argues that his detention during the pendency of the removal proceedings that appear to be pending against him is unlawful. But a stay of removal pending disposition of his habeas petition would not remedy any irreparable injury associated with that detention. To the contrary, such a stay could potentially prolong that detention and thus increase such injury. For the foregoing reasons, #3 Emergency Motion to Stay Transfer During Pendency of #1 Petition is DENIED. SO ORDERED. Signed by Judge Howard C. Nielson, Jr., on 08/15/2026. No attached document. (cdb) [Transferred from utd on 8/26/2026.]
