See 28 U.S.C. § 2241. On May 24, 2010, respondents moved to dismiss the petition for lack of jurisdiction, alleging that petitioner has been removed to India and thus is no longer detained. On July 20, 2010, the court informed petitioner of the requirements for filing an opposition to any motion to dismiss. That order gave petitioner 30 days to file an opposition or statement of non-opposition and warned him that failure to do so would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. //// //// //// 1 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA MANDEEP SINGH, Petitioner, No. CIV S-09-0630 JAM EFB P FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Dockets.Justia.com 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 The 30 days have passed and petitioner has not filed an opposition or a statement of no opposition nor otherwise responded to the July 20, 2010 order.

Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 (9th Cir. 1991). In his objections petitioner may address whether a certificate of appealability should issue in the event he files an appeal of the judgment in this case. See Rule 11, Federal Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases (the district court must issue or deny a certificate of appealability when it enters a final order adverse to the applicant).
