Moran

Summary

The United States District Court for the Southern District of California denied Darwin-Alexander Moran’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, with leave to amend. The court held that Moran failed to name the warden of the detention facility as respondent and therefore had not established jurisdiction, and alternatively failed to show a significant likelihood that removal would not occur in the reasonably foreseeable future. The court barred removal while the matter remained pending and allowed forty-five days to file an amended petition.
