ORDER

Petitioner has filed a pro se Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. §

2254 (Dkt. #1). This matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Jay Irwin who issued a Report

and Recommendation recommending that the Petition be denied for failure to prosecute

pursuant to Rule 41(b) Fed.R.Civ.P. (Dkt. #13). The Court notes that Plaintiff's copy of the

Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation was returned by the post-office with the

notation of "Undeliverable." (Dkt. #14). Petitioner has not filed an objection to the Report

and Recommendation. 

STANDARD OF REVIEW

The district court must review the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations

de novo if objection is made but not otherwise. United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d

1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C)("[a] judge of the court

shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed

findings or recommendations to which objection is made"). "Failure to object to a magistrate

judge's recommendation waives all objections to the judge's findings of fact." Jones v.

Wood, 207 F.3d 557, 562 n.2 (9th Cir. 2000). 

DISCUSSION

The Court has considered the pleadings and documents of record in this case. On

February 24, 2006, Petitioner filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 2241 challenging his detention without bond in the INS Processing Center in

Florence, Arizona, while awaiting removal to Georgia. (Dkt.# 1). Petitioner's Petition

alleges that he was ordered removed on February 2, 2005, and has been detained more than

180 days. He alleges he has been cooperative with attempts to remove him, but remained in

detention. 

On June 15, 2006, Respondents filed a Suggestion of Mootness, with documents

reflecting Petitioner's release on conditions of supervision on or about March 17, 2006. (Dkt.

#10). Petitioner has not filed a notice of change of address. 

On June 19, 2006, the Magistrate Judge issued an Order giving Petitioner fifteen days

to either: (1) file a notice of change of address; or (2) show cause why his Petition should not

be dismissed for failure to prosecute in light of his failure to file a Notice of Change of

Address as previously ordered. (Dkt. #11). That order further gave Petitioner fifteen days

to show cause why his Petition should not be dismissed as moot in light of his apparent

release from custody. Copies of that order were mailed to Petitioner at his address of record

but have been returned as "Undeliverable". (Dkt. #12). Petitioner has not responded. The

Court finds itself in agreement with the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate

Judge.

Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation of

the Magistrate Judge as the order of this Court. (Dkt. #13).

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is denied

and dismissed without prejudice. (Dkt.#1).
