Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding with a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28

12 U.S.C. § 2241. On February 8, 2016, Petitioner mailed a motion for a temporary restraining order to
13 prohibit the Bureau of Prisons from conducting a rehearing of the disciplinary action that is the subject
14 of the habeas petition. The Bureau of Prisons conducted the disciplinary rehearing on February 9, 2016.
15 The Court received and filed the motion on February 11, 2016, and on February 16, 2016, issued a
16 minute order directing Respondent to respond to the motion within 15 days. In a status report filed
17 February 22, 2016, Petitioner reports that outcome of the most recent rehearing does not affect the
18 resolution of his pending petition.
19

Because the disciplinary hearing that the motion sought to prevent has already occurred, no

20 purpose remains for the issuance of the temporary restraining order requested in the February 8, 2016,
21 motion. Accordingly, the Court hereby DENIES the motion for temporary restraining order (Doc. 15) as
22 moot. The February 16, 2016, order directing Respondent to respond to the motion is hereby
23 VACATED.
24
IT IS SO ORDERED.
