Case No. 4:18-cv-1738-AKK-TMP
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This case is before the court on Respondents’ Motion to Dismiss Petition as
Moot, filed December 3, 2018. Doc. 6. In the motion, Respondents note Petitioner
was removed from the United States to Gambia on November 28, 2018. Doc. 6-1.
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. The
Order to Show Cause, doc. 2, is withdrawn. A separate order will be entered.
DONE the 4th day of December, 2018.
