Crawley v. Roberson

1
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS
ANNETTE CRAWLEY,
Petitioner,
v. CASE NO. 25-3274-JWL
MARK ROBERSON, Sheriff,
Respondent.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
This matter is a petition for habeas corpus filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. At the time of
filing, Petitioner was confined at the Johnson County Adult Detention Center in Olathe, Kansas
(“JCADC”). Petitioner alleges that she has no charges in Johnson County but is being held on a
detainer issued by Clay County, Missouri, and has refused extradition. (Doc. 3, at 1.) Petitioner
further alleges that she was previously detained under the same detainer for the same charges, and
the case was dismissed when she refused extradition and no Governor’s warrant was obtained. Id.
at 2.
Petitioner filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 4) but failed to
include the financial information required by D. Kan. Rule 9.1(g)(2)(A). On January 5, 2026, the
Court entered a Notice of Deficiency (Doc. 5), ordering Petitioner to supply the missing financial
information.
The Court’s Notice of Deficiency was mailed to Petitioner at the JCADS—her address of
record. The Notice of Deficiency was returned to the Court with a notation indicating that it was

unable to be forwarded. Pursuant to the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office, Petitioner was released
from custody on January 7, 2026.
Petitioner is obligated to update the Court of her change of address. The Court’s Local
Rules provide that pro se parties “must notify the clerk of any change of address or telephone
number.” D. Kan. Rule 5.1(b)(3). The Court will grant Petitioner an opportunity to show good
cause why her Petition is not moot due to her release. Petitioner should also show good cause why
this matter should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute and failure to provide a change of
address as required by the Court’s Local Rules. Failure to respond by the deadline may result in
dismissal of this case without further notice.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED BY THE COURT that Petitioner is granted until
February 27, 2026, in which to show good cause why this case should not be dismissed for the
reasons set forth in this Order to Show Cause.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated January 27, 2026, in Kansas City, Kansas.
