REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

CHARLES A. STAMPELOS, Magistrate Judge.

Petitioner, proceeding pro se, filed a petitioner for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. ECF No. 1. Respondents filed a response to the petition, ECF No. 7, arguing that there was a significant likelihood of removal in the reasonably foreseeable future and contending that Petitioner is not a citizen of the U.S. Virgin Islands as he alleged in the petition but, instead, is a native and citizen of Jamaica. ECF No. 7.

Thereafter, Petitioner filed a reply on October 15, 2018, disputing his citizenship and claiming that Jamaican officials told him they would not issue a travel document for him. ECF No. 12. Petitioner argued that his petition should be granted under Zadvydas.

On November 27, 2018, a status report was filed by Respondents, indicating that "the Jamaican Consulate in Miami issued an emergency travel document for Petitioner on November 20, 2018, based upon a verified record of Petitioner's birth in Jamaica." ECF No. 13 at 1. On December 4, 2018, Respondents filed a motion to dismiss the petition as moot, ECF No. 14, which advised that Petitioner was removed from the United States to Jamaica on November 29, 2018.

This case no longer presents a case or controversy as Petitioner has already received the relief sought in the petition, release from detention. Attached to the motion is a copy of Form I-205, Warrant of Removal/Deportation. ECF No. 14-1. That form demonstrates that, although Petitioner refused to sign the form or be fingerprinted, Petitioner's removal was witnessed by an immigration official when Petitioner left the United States on November 29, 2018, from the Miami International Airport. Id. at 2.

Accordingly, this § 2241 petition is moot because the relief requested by Petitioner, release from detention, has been provided. Petitioner is no longer in custody and no further relief may be granted.

It is respectfully RECOMMENDED that the motion to dismiss, ECF No. 14, be GRANTED, and the § 2241 petition filed by Donald A. Robinson be DISMISSED as moot.
