Proceedings: (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

The Court is in receipt of the Respondents’ Request to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction,
ECF 7, and Notice of Errata, ECF 8, and Petitioner’s Reply in Support of Ex Parte Application
for Restraining Order, ECF 9. Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and Ex Parte
Application for Temporary Restraining Order indicate that Petitioner is currently in custody at the
Adelanto Detention Center, Adelanto, California, which is located in the Central District of
California. Respondents, however, represent, based on information provided by the Immigration
and Customs Enforcement website, that since September 17, 2025, Petitioner has been in custody
at the Golden State Annex, which is located in McFarland, California, in the Eastern District of
California. ECF 8-1 at 2. Respondents argue that this Court therefore lacks jurisdiction over
Petitioner’s habeas petition. Jd. at 3.

In his Reply, Petitioner contends that, to the extent this action was filed in the incorrect
venue, the proper course is to transfer to the Eastern District of California rather than to dismiss
the petition. ECF 9. However, Petitioner does not directly address or refute Respondents’
representations as to where he was detained when he filed his habeas petition. See Francis v.
Rison, 894 F.3d 353, 354 (9th Cir. 1990) (“[JJurisdiction attaches on initial filing for habeas corpus
relief, and it is not destroyed by a transfer of the petitioner and the accompanying custodial
change.” (quotation marks and citation omitted)). The parties are therefore ORDERED TO
SHOW CAUSE in writing, no later than November 24, 2025, at 12:00 p.m., as to why this matter
should not be transferred to the Eastern District of California. Failure to file a response by that
deadline will be deemed consent to the transfer.
