Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM**

Patrick Aubrey Hodgson appeals pro se the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas petition challenging his detention by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. We dismiss the appeal as moot. Cf. Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 8-16, 118 S.Ct. 978, 140 L.Ed.2d 43 (1998) (holding petitioner’s subsequent release rendered petition moot because petitioner could no longer satisfy case or controversy requirement).

DISMISSED.
