Petitioner,
v.
JEH C. JOHNSON, et al.,
Respondents.

Case No. 4:17-cv-00118-KOB-SGC

MEMORANDUM OPINION
This case is before the court on Respondents’ Motion to Dismiss as Moot, filed
March 7, 2017. (Doc. 6). In the motion, Respondents note Petitioner was removed
from the United States on March 4, 2017. (Id.; Doc. 6-1 at 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 and ORDERED this 9th day of March, 2017.
