Trial Court Opinion

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 11 CARMEN RODRIGUEZ RASCON, No. 1:25-cv-1787 AC 12 Petitioner, 13 v. ORDER 14 TODD LYONS, et al, 15 Respondents. 16 17 On December 22, 2025, the court issued an order granting petitioner’s motion for a 18 temporary restraining order and directed respondents to release petitioner from their custody. 19 ECF No. 15. Respondents were also ordered to show cause why the court should not issue a 20 preliminary injunction on the same terms as the temporary restraining order. Id. at 12. On 21 December 23, 2025, respondents filed a response to the order to show cause, stating that they 22 have nothing further to add to the arguments raised in their opposition to the motion for a 23 temporary restraining order. ECF No. 16. Because the standard for issuing a temporary 24 restraining order is substantially identical to the standard for issuing a preliminary injunction, 25 Stuhlbarg Int’l Sales Co. v. John D. Brush & Co.,

240 F.3d 832

, 839 n.7 (9th Cir. 2001), the court 26 finds petitioner has sufficiently shown that all four Winter1 factors weigh in favor of granting 27
