ABDIRAHMAN ELMI ABDI,
Petitioner,
v.
TODD ENTREKIN, Sheriff of
Etowah County, et al.,
Respondents.

Civil Action Number:
4:17-cv-00083-AKK-SGC

MEMORANDUM OPINION
This case is before the court on Respondents’ Motion to Dismiss as Moot,
filed February 13, 2017. Doc. 5. In the motion, Respondents note Petitioner was
removed from the United States on January 24, 2017. Id. at 1; see also doc. 5-1 at
1. Because Petitioner has been removed, the court can no longer provide
meaningful relief. Thus, the court finds 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 the 21st day of February, 2017.
