LEOPOLD GOSS, : : Petitioner, : v. : Civil Action No. 09-0705 (RMU) : JOHN CAULFIELD et al., : : Respondents. :
MEMORANDUM OPINION
DISMISSING THE PETITIONER’S HABEAS PETITION
On April 17, 2009, the pro se petitioner commenced this action challenging his pretrial
detention and other matters related to the criminal proceedings brought against him in Criminal
Action No. 05-0075. See generally Pet. On August 21, 2009, the petitioner pled guilty in that
action and has been on supervised release since that date. Accordingly, on April 2, 2010, the
court ordered the petitioner to show cause, on or before April 30, 2010, why his habeas petition
should not be denied as moot and this matter dismissed. See Order (Apr. 2, 2010). The court
subsequently granted the petitioner an extension of time until May 17, 2010 to comply with the
show cause order. See Minute Order (Apr. 29, 2010). Despite being granted this extension, the
petitioner has failed to comply with the show cause order.
Accordingly, the court denies as moot the petitioner’s habeas petition. An Order
consistent with this Memorandum Opinion is separately and contemporaneously issued this 23rd
day of June, 2010.
