Nagib v. Andrews

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Nagib v. Andrews, 52 F. App'x 923 (9th Cir. 2002)

Nagib v. Andrews

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Former federal prisoner Kareem Nagib appeals pro se the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas petition, challenging the loss of his early release eligibility. We dismiss this appeal as moot.

Nagib contends that the Bureau of Prisons (“BOP”) applied a change to him retroactively, causing him to lose early release eligibility pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3621(e)(2)(B).

Because Nagib has since been released from custody, there is no habeas remedy available for this alleged injury. See United States v. Johnson, 529 U.S. 53, 58-60, 120 S.Ct. 1114, 146 L.Ed.2d 39 (2000) (holding that a former inmate’s supervised release term may not be credited with undisputed excess time in prison). Without a live case or controversy, we do not reach the merits of Nagib’s contention. See Munoz v. Rowland, 104 F.3d 1096, 1097 (9th Cir. 1997).

DISMISSED.
