    No. 11-50751
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Jan. 9, 2013.
    Edgar Wencel Ruiz-Villalobos, Pecos, TX, pro se.
    Gary Layton Anderson, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, San Antonio, TX, for Respondents-Appellees.
    
      Before SMITH, PRADO, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Edgar Ruiz-Villalobos, former federal prisoner # 58225-279, appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his exclusion from rehabilitation programs and halfway houses. Because he has been released from the custody of the Bureau of Prisons, respondents’ motion to dismiss the appeal as moot is GRANTED. See Calderon v. Moore, 518 U.S. 149, 150, 116 S.Ct. 2066, 135 L.Ed.2d 453 (1996). Respondents’ alternative motion for an extension of time to file their brief is DENIED as unnecessary.

The appeal is DISMISSED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cm. R. 47.5.4.
