SCOTT v. MOSER

Filing 22

MEMORANDUM OPINION - The Petitioner's Petition will be denied as moot. (Cf, Buck v. Pugh, No. 12-1669, 2013, WL 3972654, at *2 (W.D. Pa. July 30, 2013) ("because Petitioner has been released from the custody of the Bureau of Prisons (' BOP') and because we do not presume collateral consequences, and because Petitioner has not carried his burden to avoid a finding of mootness by him showing a continuing injury, which is attributable to the loss of GCT credits, the Petition shou ld be dismissed as moot."). A certificate of appealability is not required for federal prisoners seeking relief under Section 2241. Muza v. Werlinger, 415 F. App'x 355, 357 n.1 (3d Cir. 2011). See also 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1). Therefore, it is not necessary to determine whether one should be issued here. An appropriate Order follows, and as more fully stated in said Memorandum Opinion. Signed by Judge Kim R. Gibson on 3/27/2024. (dlg)
