PER CURIAM:

Kelvin Gould seeks to appeal the district court’s 

order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and 

denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2006) petition. In his 

petition, Gould claimed that he had been in custody for three 

years awaiting trial on several charges and his continued 

detention pending resolution of those charges entitled him to 

habeas relief. Gould was convicted of the state charges while 

this appeal was pending. Therefore, we dismiss the appeal as 

moot. We also deny all of Gould’s pending motions including: 

the motion for transcripts at government expense; the motion to 

withdraw/relieve/substitute counsel; the motion for appeal of 

final judgment; and the motion for “Faretta” hearing. We 

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the 

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
