Respondents. ;
O R D E R
I. Petitioner Ronald G. Johnson (“Petitioner") was
incarcerated at the Howard R, Young Correctional Institution in
Wilmington, Delaware when he filed the pending Application For A
Writ Of Habeas Corpus Pursuant To 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (“Petition")
challenging his pre—trial detention. (D.I. 1.) As explained in
the Court’s Order dated April 28, 2008, (D.I. 4.), it appears
that Petitioner was released from custody, thereby rendering his
Petition moot. Consequently, the Court ordered Petitioner to
show cause in writing why the Petition should not be dismissed as
moot by May 23, 2008, and explained that failure to file a timely
response would result in the Court’s ruling on the Petition as
currently pending. Id; The record reveals that Petitioner has
not complied with the Court’s Order. Therefore, the Petition
(D.I. I.) is DISMISSED as moot. 5QQ (D.I. 4.)
