IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-50401

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

RAUL PALACIOS-GARCIA,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Western District of Texas

USDC No. 2:13-CR-819-1

Before REAVLEY, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Raul Palacios-Garcia appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty 

plea conviction for illegal reentry following a previous deportation. He argues 

that the district court erred in imposing an obstruction-of-justice enhancement 

and in refusing to apply the acceptance-of-responsibility reduction. In 

addition, he argues that the district court’s denial of his motion to file out-oftime objections to the presentence report was an abuse of discretion. 

 

* 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.

No. 14-50401

2

Palacios-Garcia has completed his term of imprisonment, has been 

released from custody, and has been removed to Mexico. The appeal of his 

sentence is therefore moot. See United States v. Rosenbaum-Alanis, 483 F.3d 

381, 382-83 (5th Cir. 2007).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
