LIN v. MUKASEY

JAMES MOODY JR., District Judge

BEFORE the Court is the Respondents' Motion to Dismiss For Mootness (Dkt. 17). Respondents inform the Court that Petitioner was removed to China on December 15, 2008. Because the relief Petitioner sought in his petition was to be free from indefinite detention pending his repatriation (Dkt. 1 at 9), his petition is now moot.

Upon consideration, the Government's motion to dismiss is GRANTED (Dkt. 17). This case is hereby DISMISSED. The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions and close this case.

DONE and ORDERED in Tampa, Florida
