Case No.: 4:13-cv-01319-LSC-SGC

MEMORANDUM OPINION
This case is before the court on Respondents’ Motion to Dismiss as Moot, filed April 20,
2015. (Doc. 12). In their motion, Respondents note that Petitioner was removed from the United
States on April 9, 2015. (Doc. 12-1). Because Petitioner has been removed, the court can no longer
provide meaningful relief. Thus, the court finds that the petition for writ of habeas corpus is moot.
See Nyaga v. Ashcroft, 323 F.3d 906, 913 (11th Cir. 2003). Accordingly, Respondents’ motion to
dismiss is due to be granted and the petition is due to be dismissed.
A separate order will be entered.

Done this 30th day of April, 2015.
