MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is a habeas corpus case filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 by Khan Kamran, pro se. He
claims that he is being held in custody illegally by immigration officials at the Etowah County
Detention Center in Gadsden, Alabama, pending removal from the United States. Respondents now
move to dismiss the action as moot. (Doc. 9).
In support of their motion, Respondents have filed evidence showing that Petitioner was
released from custody under order of supervision. (Doc. 9-1). Thus, Petitioner’s claim for release
under an order of supervision or for repatriation is moot. See Nyaga v. Ashcroft, 323 F.3d 906, 913
(11th Cir. 2003) (“a case must be dismissed as moot if the court can no longer provide ‘meaningful
relief’”). Accordingly, Respondents’ motion is due to be granted, and this matter is due to be
dismissed as moot. A separate final order will be entered.
DONE this the

9th

day of February, 2015.
