REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
JOSEPH F. SAPORITO, JR., Magistrate Judge.
On March 28, 2019, the Court received and filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus submitted pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, signed and dated by the petitioner on March 23, 2019. (Doc. 1). In this petition, Abdallah, a native and citizen of Libya, challenged the legality of his detention. At the time of filing, Abdallah was being held in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") at York County Prison, located in York County, Pennsylvania.
On April 25, 2019, the respondent filed a suggestion of mootness in which he reported that Abdallah had been released from ICE custody on March 28, 2019, on an order of supervision. (Doc. 7). Because Abdallah "has achieved the result he sought in his habeas petition and his change in circumstances has `forestalled any occasion for meaningful relief,'" his habeas petition is now moot. Nunes v. Decker, 480 Fed. App'x 173, 175 (3d Cir. 2012) (quoting Artway v. Attorney Gen., 81 F.3d 1235, 1246 (3d Cir. 1996)); see also Rojas v. Lowe, No. 1:CV-13-871, 2013 WL 5876851, at *3 (M.D. Pa. Oct. 30, 2013).
Accordingly, it is recommended that the petition (Doc. 1) be DISMISSED AS MOOT and this case be marked as CLOSED.
