(In Chambers) Order re Notice of Lodging of Executed Warrant of
Removal [Dkt. 7]

On February 28, 2017, Petitioner Afnan Ali (“Petitioner”) filed a Petition for Writ of
Habeas Corpus by a Person Subject to Indefinite Immigration Detention pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
2241 (“Petition”). ECF Docket No. (“Dkt.”) 1. On March 29, 2017, Respondent filed an
Answer stating Petitioner was scheduled to be removed from the United States in mid-April.
Dkt. 5.
On April 20, 2017, Respondent filed a Notice of Lodging Executed Warrant of Removal
stating Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed Petitioner from the United States on
April 11, 2017. Dkts. 6, 7. If Respondent’s claim is correct, it appears the Petition is now moot.
Accordingly, Petitioner is ordered to file a response indicating why this matter is not moot
within 7 days of the date of this order. Alternatively, Petitioner may file a notice of voluntary
dismissal.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
