February 27, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 14 FINAL JUDGMENT: In accordance with the Courts order of dismissal entered this day and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 58, it is the final judgment of the Court that James S. Gorman's petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. 2241 is DISMISSED. See FED. R. CIV. P. 58. (Ordered by Judge Mark Pittman on 2/27/2023) (tjc)
February 27, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 13 ORDER: Petitioner James S. Gorman is a pretrial detainee confined in Tarrant County Jail, where he is awaiting trial on a state aggravated-sexual-assault charge.

For the following reasons, the Court DISMISSES Gorman's habeas petition. Gormans motion for an extension of time to file his 2241 petition is DENIED as moot and unnecessary. See ECF No. #10 . The clerk of Court received and docketed Gormans 2241 petition on February 14. (Ordered by Judge Mark Pittman on 2/27/2023) (tjc)
