   MEMORANDUM

Julio Cesar Ferman-Flores, a native and citizen of Guatemala, appeals pro se the district court’s order dismissing as successive his habeas corpus petition seeking relief from removal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. We have jurisdiction to determine our jurisdiction, see Aragoro-Ayon v. INS, 206 F.3d 847, 849 (9th Cir.2000), and we dismiss the appeal.

Because Ferman-Flores was removed from the United States while this appeal was pending, the appeal is now moot and this court lacks jurisdiction. See 28 U.S.C. § 2241(c); Miranda v. Reno, 238 F.3d 1156, 1158 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 122 S.Ct. 541, 151 L.Ed.2d 419 (2001).

DISMISSED.
