1Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM: *

Kujoe Agyei-Kodie, immigration detainee # A072732130, appeals the dismissal of *318his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his continued detention pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1226. The government has moved to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, arguing that the appeal is moot because Agyei-Kodie is no longer detained pursuant to § 1226, and any challenge to his post-removal-order detention is premature. In the alternative, the government seeks an extension of time in which to file its brief. Agyei-Kodie has filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) on appeal.
