DISTRICT OF NEVADA
JERRY BROWN, Case No. 3:19-cv-00258-LRH-WGC Petitioner, ; ORDER
RENEE BAKER, et al.,
Respondents.
In this habeas corpus action, on January 19, 2021, the respondents filed a Suggestion of Death (ECF No. 47), giving notice that the petitioner, Jerry Brown, has died.
Brown’s death extinguishes his habeas claims and renders his petition moot. See Garceau v. Woodford, 399 F.3d 1101 (9th Cir. 2005); Griffey v. Lindsey, 349 F.3d 1157 (9th Cir. 2003).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter judgment accordingly and close this case.
DATED this 3rd day of February, 2021. - UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
