Case No. 4:18-cv-1738-AKK-TMP
12-04-2018
MUHAMMED FOFANA, Petitioner, v. SCOTT HASSELL, et al., Respondents.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This case is before the court on Respondents' Motion to Dismiss Petition as Moot, filed December 3, 2018. Doc. 6. In the motion, Respondents note Petitioner was removed from the United States to Gambia on November 28, 2018. Doc. 6-1. Because Petitioner has been removed, the court can no longer provide meaningful relief. Thus, the court finds that the petition for writ of habeas corpus is moot. See Nyaga v. Ashcroft, 323 F.3d 906, 913 (11th Cir. 2003). Accordingly, Respondents' motion to dismiss is due to be granted and the petition is due to be dismissed. The Order to Show Cause, doc. 2, is withdrawn. A separate order will be entered.
DONE the 4th day of December, 2018.
