UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RANJIT CHEEMA,

Petitioner,

v.

NEIL H. ADLER, et.al.,

Respondents.

 /

1:09-cv-01613-SMS (HC)

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S

MOTION FOR VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL OF

THE PETITION

[Doc. 10]

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1), the parties have consented to

the jurisdiction of the United States Magistrate Judge. Local Rule 305(b).

Petitioner submits that since the filing of the instant petition, “the United States Bureau of

Prisons (“B.O.P”) received additional information from Canadian authorities indicating that Mr.

Cheema was in Canadian custody solely on the extradition warrant for approximately 130 of the

days in dispute. As a result, the B.O.P. has granted him credit for those 130 days against his

federal sentence.” (Motion, at 1-2.) It was further determined that Petitioner was not eligible for

the remaining 90 days of credit, as challenged in the instant petition. (Id. at 2.) Petitioner

“accepts the reduction of his sentence as determined by the B.O.P.” (Id.)
