    No. 11-50466
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Feb. 22, 2013.
    Jose Angel Balleza-Escamilla, Pecos, TX, pro se.
    Gary Layton Anderson, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, San Antonio, TX, for Respondents-Appellees.
    Before JONES, DENNIS, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Jose Angel Balleza-Escamilla, former federal prisoner # 59307-279, appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his exclusion from rehabilitation programs and halfway houses. As Balleza-Escamilla has been released from Bureau of Prisons custody, we grant Respondents’ motion to dismiss the appeal as moot and dismiss the appeal as moot. See Calderon v. Moore, 518 U.S. 149, 150, 116 S.Ct. 2066, 135 L.Ed.2d 453 (1996)(explain-ing ways in which a case can become moot). Respondents’ alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is denied as unnecessary.

MOTION TO DISMISS GRANTED; APPEAL DISMISSED; MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME DENIED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir R. 47.5.4.
