DECISION and ORDER
By Motion dated April 12, 2008, Plaintiff sought a preliminary injunction requiring Defendants to remove him from the Special Housing Unit. Subsequently, on May 14, 2008, Plaintiff was removed from the Special Housing Unit. "[A] case is moot when the issues presented are no longer `live' or the parties lack a legally cognizable interest in the outcome.")." Powell v. McCormack, 395 U.S. 486, 496 (1969). Because Plaintiff has been released from the Special Housing Unit, there is no longer a "live" controversy on this issue for this Court to adjudicate. Plaintiff's motion for preliminary injunction is, therefore, DENIED as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
