UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

HOSSEIN ATASHRANG,

Plaintiff,

v.

LORETTA LYNCH, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-02063-HRL 

ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO 

WITHDRAW PETITION AND 

COMPLAINT AS MOOT

Re: Dkt. No. 14

Plaintiff Hossein Atashrang sued Loretta Lynch and several other federal employees in 

their official capacities. Plaintiff petitioned for a hearing on his naturalization application and for 

the court to either naturalize Plaintiff or else order that the United States Citizenship and 

Immigration Services (“USCIS”) should naturalize Plaintiff. The parties expressly consented to 

magistrate jurisdiction.

Plaintiff moved the court to permit the withdrawal of Plaintiff’s petition and complaint as 

moot because USCIS approved Plaintiff’s naturalization application and scheduled him to be 

sworn in as a United States Citizen. Dkt. No. 14. Defendants stated their non-opposition to 

Plaintiff’s motion. Dkt. No. 15.

The court grants Plaintiff’s request. The petition and complaint are withdrawn as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: 9/10/15
