Edel Loredo-corrales, Petitioner-appellant, v. J.j.c. Higgins, Associate Commissioner for Enforcement, Insrespondent-appellee, 132 F.3d 39 (9th Cir. 1997)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 132 F.3d 39 (9th Cir. 1997) Submitted Dec. 15, 1997. **Dec. 22, 1997

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona C.A. Muecke, District Judge, Presiding

Before SNEED, LEAVY, and TROTT, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM* 

Edel Loredo-Corrales appeals pro se from the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas petition challenging his detention. The appellee's motion to dismiss is granted, and we dismiss.

Loredo-Corrales contends that the Immigration and Naturalization Service has failed to find him an alternative to detention in the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Here, subsequent to his appeal Loredo-Corrales was released from custody and granted immigration parole. Since Loredo-Corrales was seeking an alternative to incarceration at the Federal Bureau of Prisons, and because he has since been released, there is no further relief we can provide. See Picrin-Peron v. Rison, 930 F.2d 773, 776 (9th Cir. 1991). Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED.

 **

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 9th Cir. R. 34-4
