NONPRECEDENTIAL DISPOSITION To be cited only in accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 United States Court of Appeals For the Seventh Circuit Chicago, Illinois  60604 Submitted August 24, 2010 Decided September 10, 2010 Before      RICHARD A. POSNER, Circuit Judge      ANN CLAIRE WILLIAMS, Circuit Judge      JOHN DANIEL TINDER, Circuit Judge No. 10 1281 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,           Plaintiff Appellee, Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin           v. No. 2:99 cr 00211 LA 1 YOGESH SHAH,           Defendant Appellant. Lynn Adelman, Judge. O R D E R After  we  reversed  the  judgment  with  instructions  to  resentence,  559  F.3d  643  (7th Cir.  2009),  the  defendant  was  resentenced,  and  again  appealed.  His  lawyer  has  filed  an Anders brief and moved to dismiss the appeal as frivolous; he has responded. On remand the judge had imposed a below guidelines sentence of 108 months, the practical  equivalent  of  time  served.  The  defendant  has  been  released  from  custody  and removed  to  India.  His  convictions,  which  are  not  at  issue,  render  him  inadmissible  to  the United  States;  he  has  served  his  prison  sentence;  and  the  amount  he  has  been  ordered  to pay in restitution is uncollectable. Even if the appeal is not moot, it is entirely frivolous, as explained in great and lucid detail in the Anders brief filed by the federal defender. The motion is granted and the appeal DISMISSED.
