JOSÉ A. CABRANES, Circuit Judge.
Petitioner Roy Swaby appeals from an order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Al-lyne R. Ross, Judge), dated April 22, 2003, denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. After this Court denied his motion for a stay of removal pending appeal, Swaby was deported on or about August 25, 2003 as an alien convicted of an aggravated felony, based on a 1990 conviction by a jury in New York for second-degree burglary and unlawful possession of marijuana.
