United States v. Suarez-Reyes, No. 17-1849 (1st Cir. 2018)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit dismissed Defendant’s appeal from his sentence as moot because Defendant had already completed serving the custodial sentence he attempted to challenge on appeal.
Defendant pled guilty to unlawfully attempting to enter the United States after being removed therefrom following an aggravated felony conviction. The district court imposed a twenty-one month custodial sentence following by three years of supervised release. Defendant appealed his custodial sentence, and his appeal was still pending when he completed his custodial term and began serving his term of supervised release. The First Circuit summarily dismissed the appeal as moot because the appeal, even if successful, would not lead to any effectual relief.
The court issued a subsequent related opinion or order on December 18, 2018.
