DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, No. 14-30207 D.C. No. 2:10-cr-02140-FVS v. MEMORANDUM* ALFREDO MENDOZA-ALVAREZ, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington Fred L. Van Sickle, District Judge, Presiding Submitted April 22, 2015** Before: GOODWIN, BYBEE, and CHRISTEN, Circuit Judges. Alfredo Mendoza-Alvarez appeals from the revocation of supervised release and six-month sentence imposed upon revocation. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Mendoza-Alvarez’s counsel has filed a brief * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). stating that the appeal is moot, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We agree that the appeal is moot because Mendoza-Alvarez has fully served his custodial sentence and is not subject to an additional term of supervised release. See Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 14 (1998); United States v. Palomba, 182 F.3d 1121, 1123 (9th Cir. 1999). We, therefore, dismiss the appeal. Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED. DISMISSED. 2 14-30207
