Question Presented (from Petition)

A) Whether a lower federal court loses its jurisdiction
over a petition for writ of habeas corpus upon release
of the civil detention petitioner, albeit with
conditions and restrictions, or if and how the
mootness question applies to confinement in the civil
arena.

B) What level of precision of pleading suffices for pro
se litigants, for the lower court to be bound under
this Court 's Castro v. United States, (2001) and its
progeny, and for petitioner 's filing to survive a
district court 's potential use of a dismissal without
leave to amend : when filing for a Writ of habeas
corpus.
