ORDER

Petitioner Anthony Wayne Chui is subject to an order of removal from the United

States and has been detained by the federal Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement

of the Department of Homeland Security. Petitioner filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Dkt. #1. The petition requests an order requiring the

Department of Homeland Security to grant Petitioner a bond hearing pending his removal.

Id. at 9.

Respondent has filed a motion to dismiss the petition as moot on the ground that

Petitioner has obtained the relief sought in the petition. Dkt. #32. The Court will grant the

motion.

Petitioner received a bond hearing before an immigration judge on April 24, 2009.

The judge issued an order releasing Petitioner from federal custody upon posting a $10,000

bond. Dkt. #32-2 at 2. Because Petitioner has been provided the relief sought in his petition,

and because the Court is without jurisdiction to review the immigration judge’s bond

2008) (dismissing as moot portion of habeas petition challenging detention without bond

upon grant of bond hearing).

IT IS ORDERED:

1. Respondent’s motion to dismiss (Dkt. #32) is granted.

2. Petitioner’s petition for writ of habeas corpus (Dkt. #1) is dismissed as moot.

3. The Clerk is directed to terminate this action.

DATED this 14th day of May, 2009.
