MARISOL COLIN-GARCIA,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Western District of Texas

USDC No. 5:07-CR-723-1

Before JOLLY, STEWART, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

*

The attorney appointed to represent Marisol Colin-Garcia has moved for

leave to withdraw and has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California,

386 U.S. 738 (1967). Colin-Garcia has not filed a response.

“This Court must examine the basis of its jurisdiction, on its own motion,

if necessary.” Mosley v. Cozby, 813 F.2d 659, 660 (5th Cir. 1987). Article III,

section 2, of the Constitution limits federal court jurisdiction to actual cases and

controversies. Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 7 (1998). The case-or-controversy

requirement demands that “some concrete and continuing injury other than the

now-ended incarceration or parole—some ‘collateral consequence’ of the

conviction—must exist if the suit is to be maintained.” Id. at 7.

Upon revoking her supervised release, the district court sentenced ColinGarcia to 15 months of imprisonment, but the court did not impose any

additional term of supervised release. During the pendency of this appeal,

Colin-Garcia completed her term of imprisonment and has been discharged from

prison. Accordingly, there is no case or controversy for us to address.

For the foregoing reasons, this appeal is DISMISSED as moot, and

counsel’s motion to withdraw is DENIED as unnecessary.
