LUIS ANGEL NUNEZ VIERA, Petitioner, v. CLARE DOLL, Respondent.
() (Magistrate Judge Saporito) ORDER
Luis Angel Nunez Viera, an individual previously detained by the United States Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE"), filed this 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition seeking an individualized bond hearing pending his removal from the United States. On August 6, 2020, Magistrate Judge Joseph F. Saporito, Jr., issued a Report and Recommendation recommending that this Court dismiss as moot Nunez Viera's petition, as Nunez Viera has been released from ICE custody on bond. The Report and Recommendation was returned to the Court as undeliverable.
Doc. 1.
Doc. 11.
Doc. 13.
Where no objection is made to a report and recommendation, this Court will review the recommendation only for clear error. Regardless of whether timely objections are made, district courts may accept, reject, or modify—in whole or in part—the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge. After reviewing the record, the Court finds no error—clear or otherwise—in Magistrate Judge Saporito's conclusion that this Court may no longer grant the requested relief, and that Nunez Viera's § 2241 petition is therefore moot. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), advisory committee notes; see Henderson v. Carlson, 812 F.2d 874, 878 (3d Cir. 1987) (explaining that court should in some manner review recommendations regardless of whether objections were filed).
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Local Rule 72.31. --------
1. Magistrate Judge Joseph F. Saporito, Jr.'s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 12), is ADOPTED;
2. Nunez Viera's 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition (Doc. 1) is DISMISSED as moot; and
3. The Clerk of Court is directed to CLOSE this case.
BY THE COURT:
