Disposition notice
On November 6, 2026, U.S. Magistrate Judge Stanley A. Boone of the Eastern District of California ordered respondents in this pro se immigration habeas case to inform the court within five days of the petitioner's current custody status and to file supporting documentation. The court explained that the petitioner, an immigration detainee proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, had been granted voluntary departure by an immigration judge on August 17, 2026, and that a search of ICE's Online Detainee Locator System using his A-number returned zero results. The court stated that it appeared the petitioner may no longer be in ICE custody, which could moot the pending habeas petition, citing Abdala v. I.N.S., 488 F.3d 1061, 1065 (9th Cir. 2007). The order does not dismiss the petition; it directs respondents to report the petitioner's custody status so the court can determine how to proceed.
