CORDELL ALLEN MINOR, Petitioner-Appellant, v. PAUL ADAMS, Respondent-Appellee.

Cordell Allen Minor, Appellant Pro Se.


UNPUBLISHED

Submitted: January 25, 2022.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia, at Clarksburg. Thomas S. Kleeh, District Judge. (1:19-cv-00222-TSK-MJA)

Cordell Allen Minor, Appellant Pro Se.

Before DIAZ and HARRIS, Circuit Judges, and FLOYD, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Cordell Allen Minor appeals the district court's order denying reconsideration of its order denying Minor's motion for a preliminary injunction and a temporary restraining order in these 28 U.S.C. § 2241 proceedings. While this appeal was pending, the district court entered an order dismissing Minor's § 2241 petition.[*] In light of that intervening dismissal, we conclude that Minor's appeal from the reconsideration order-which solely concerns Minor's request for preliminary relief-is moot. See, e.g., Doe & Assocs. Law Offs. v. Napolitano, 252 F.3d 1026, 1029 (9th Cir. 2001); In re Caribbean Tubular Corp., 813 F.2d 533, 534 (1st Cir. 1987). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED

[*] Minor has not appealed from the district court's order dismissing his § 2241 petition.
