PER CURIAM: 

Jeffrey Terrell McCue, a former South Carolina pretrial detainee, appeals the district 

court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing without 

prejudice McCue’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition, in which he challenged his pretrial detention. 

At the time McCue noted his appeal, he was detained prior to trial on charges pending 

against him in South Carolina state court. However, during the pendency of this appeal, 

the charges against McCue were nolle prosequied and he was released from custody. 

Because McCue is no longer a pretrial detainee, his appeal is now moot. Accordingly, we 

dismiss the appeal as moot. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would 

not aid the decisional process. 

DISMISSED
