Case Name in Immigration Case - Unavailable

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW MEXICO
ELAINE GARCIA-SUAREZ,
Petitioner,
v. Civ. No. 2:26-cv-00665-KG-SCY
PAMELA BONDI, et al.,
Respondents.
ORDER TO SUPPLEMENT THE RECORD
Petitioner, appearing pro se, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241
on March 2, 2026. Doc. 1. She asserts that her detention violates the Immigration and Nationality Act
but provides limited factual detail. The Government states that it has “not received any documents”
about the case and is “unable to determine if any facts exist contrary to” Petitioner’s claims. Doc. 6 at 1.
Given the absence of a developed factual record, the Court cannot determine whether relief is warranted.
Accordingly, the Court orders Petitioner to file supplemental briefing within ten (10) business days of
receiving this Order, describing:
• How she entered the United States, including the date and place of entry;
• Whether she was admitted or given parole;
• Whether she has been placed in removal or expedited removal proceedings;
• Information about her ties to the community, such as any family members and her work
history;
• Any other facts about her entry or immigration status that may assist the Court.
Respondents may file a response within ten (10) business days of Petitioner’s supplemental
filing. The Court will mail a copy of this Order to the Otero County Processing Center, where Petitioner
is detained.
