Joseph A. Bonacci, Petitioner-appellant, v. United States Parole Commission, Respondent-appellee, 961 F.2d 216 (9th Cir. 1992)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 961 F.2d 216 (9th Cir. 1992) Submitted April 20, 1992. *Decided April 24, 1992

Before FARRIS, O'SCANNLAIN and TROTT, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM** 

Joseph A. Bonacci, a former federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition alleging that the United States Parole Commission (Commission) had improperly determined his release date. Bonacci contends the district court erred by dismissing his petition for failure to exhaust his administrative remedies and urges us to order the Commission to grant him an earlier release date.

Bonacci was released from federal custody on October 4, 1991. Accordingly, because Bonacci only seeks release from custody at an earlier date than that recommended by the Commission, there is no further relief we can provide, and the issues raised by his appeal are moot. See Picrin-Peron v. Rison, 930 F.2d 773, 776 (9th Cir. 1991).

DISMISSED.
