MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is a petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by Valeriano Arrellano Hernandez ("Petitioner") pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, challenging his detention pending removal under the Immigration and Nationality Act. On November 13, 2015, Respondents filed a motion to dismiss the petition as moot. (Doc. 12). In the motion, Respondents note that Petitioner was removed from the United States on October 13, 2015. (Id. at 1; see Doc. 12-1). 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.

A separate order will be entered.
