, seeking to challenge his convictions of aggravated and simple assault.1 After the amended petition was filed, Petitioner was apparently released from his incarceration on those convictions.2 Because Petitioner is no longer in custody, it appeared to the Court that his habeas petition should be dismissed as moot because it no longer presents a case or controversy for which this Court could provide relief.3 On June 8, 2020, the Court issued an order to show cause why the amended petition should not be dismissed as moot, because Petitioner has been released
