Judge Brian E. Murphy: ELECTRONIC ORDER GRANTING Respondents’ motion to dismiss. “[A] case is moot when the court cannot give any effectual relief to the potentially prevailing party.” United States v. Negron-Cruz, 153 F.4th 90, 99 n.2 (1st Cir. 2025) (quoting ACLU of Mass. v. U.S. Conf. of Cath. Bishops, 705 F.3d 44, 52 (1st Cir. 2013)), cert. denied sub nom. Negrnn-Cruz v. United States, -- S. Ct.--, 2026 WL 568361 (Mem.) (Mar. 2, 2026). In the habeas context, courts regularly dismiss petitions as moot when changes in circumstances—including criminal custody of an alien—render unavailable the relief originally sought. See, e.g., G.G. v. Noem, 2026 WL 822759 (D.S.D. Mar. 25, 2026); Rivas v. Napolitano, 2013 WL 1567937 (W.D. La. Feb. 7, 2013), report and recommendation adopted, 2013 WL 1567501 (W.D. La. Apr. 12, 2013); see also Wade v. Wichita Cnty., Tex., 2021 WL 6503711 (N.D. Tex. Nov. 24, 2021), report and recommendation adopted, 2022 WL 160244 (N.D. Tex. Jan. 18, 2022). Here, where Petitioner is no longer in immigration custody, the Court cannot grant any further relief. Accordingly, Respondents’ motion to dismiss, Dkt. 16, is GRANTED, and the temporary restraining order, Dkt. 12, is DISSOLVED. (MBM) (Entered: 06/04/2026)
